Tuning alloy disorder in diluted magnetic semiconductors in high fields to 89 T
S. A. Crooker, N. Samarth
Abstract
Alloy disorder in II-VI diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) is typically reduced when the local magnetic spins align in an applied magnetic field. An important and untested expectation of current models of alloy disorder, however, is that alloy fluctuations in many DMS compounds should increase again in very large magnetic fields of order 100 tesla. Here we measure the disorder potential in a Zn.70Cd.22Mn.08Se quantum well via the low temperature photoluminescence linewidth, using a new magnet system to 89 T. Above 70 T, the linewidth is observed to increase again, in accord with a simple model of alloy disorder.
