Abstract

Magnetic-field-dependent type-II transition has been observed between electrons in self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) of CdSe and heavy holes (hhs) in a diluted magnetic semiconductor quantum well (DMS-QW) of Zn1−x−yCdxMnySe, originating from an electron tunneling from the DMS-QW into the QDs. The electron tunneling is resonantly assisted by LO-phonon scattering in the QDs. As a result, the type-II emission energy depends on a magnetic field, since the electron energy in the DMS-QW is a function of field strength. The magnetic-field dependence of intensity of the type-II emission suggests a level-crossing field of the hh states between the QD and DMS-QW.
