Abstract
A detailed magneto-photoluminescence study of individual (Cd, Mn)Te/(Cd, Mg)Te core/shell nanowires grown by molecular beam epitaxy is performed. First of all, an enhancement of the Zeeman splitting due to sp-d exchange interaction between band carriers and Mn-spins is evidenced in these nanostructures. Then, it is found that the value of this splitting depends strongly on the magnetic field direction with respect to the nanowire axis. The largest splitting is observed when the magnetic field is applied perpendicular and the smallest when it is applied parallel to the nanowire axis. This effect is explained in terms of magnetic field induced valence band mixing and evidences the light hole character of the excitonic emission. The values of the light and heavy hole splitting are determined for several individual nanowires based on the comparison of experimental results to theoretical calculations.
