Abstract
ABSTRACTMeasurements of optical properties of epitaxially grown CdMnTe quantum dots are presented. Magnetic ions are incorporated into the structure by passivating the substrate surface with Mn prior the quantum dot deposition. As expected, the intensity of intra-Mn transition increases with the time of manganese passivation. The formation of magnetic quantum dots is evidenced by presence of single emission lines in the micro-photoluminescence spectrum. The width of single dot emission lines is much broader than observed for non-magnetic quantum dots. The broadening is caused by thermal fluctuations of magnetization in quantum dots. Resonant spectroscopy results indicate that the exciton-optical phonon scattering is the main energy relaxation mechanism in these structures. The measurements suggest that post-growth thermal processing offers the possibility of tuning the magnetic properties of these structures.
