BINDING-ENERGIES OF D- ION IN GAAS QUANTUM-WELL

Abstract

Magnetic field dependent binding energies of the D- ion in the center of a 210 angstrom GaAs quantum well are determined by temperature magneto-transport measurments. The binding energies increase from 2.1 meV at 2T to 4 meV at 8T, and are consistently higher than the transition energies ootained from magneto-optical measurements performed on the same sample. We conclude from these data that in the magneto-optical measurement the observed transitions are between ground and excited D- states.
