Magnetooptical effects in quantum wells irradiated with light pulses

Abstract

The method of detection and investigation of the magnetopolaron effect in the semiconductor quantum wells (QW) in a strong magnetic field, based on pulse light irradiation and measuring the reflected and transmitted pulses, has been proposed. It has been shown that a beating amplitude on the frequencies, corresponding to the magnetopolaron energy level splitting, depends strongly from the exciting pulse width. The existence of the time points of the total reflection and total transparency has been predicted. The high orders of the perturbation theory on electron-electromagnetic field interaction have been taken into account.
