Abstract
The impact of quantum confinement on the exchange interaction between charge carriers and magnetic dopants in semiconductor nanomaterials has been controversially discussed for more than a decade. We developed manganese-doped CdSe quantum well nanoribbons with a strong quantum confinement perpendicular to the c-axis, showing distinct heavy hole and light hole resonances up to 300 K. This allows a separate study of the s-d and the p-d exchange interactions all the way up to room temperature. Taking into account the optical selection rules and the statistical distribution of the nanoribbons orientation on the substrate, a remarkable change in particular of the s-d exchange constant with respect to bulk is indicated. Room-temperature studies revealed an unusually high effective g-factor up to ~13 encouraging the implementation of the DMS quantum well nanoribbons for (room temperature) spintronic applications.
