P-doped CdMnTe quantum wells are known to exhibit a trend towards ferromagnetism, induced by the two-dimensional gas of heavy holes (2DHG). One way to supply a 2DHG to the quantum well is p-type doping from surface states by tunneling through a very thin capping layer. Tuning of the 2DHG density is achieved by variation the cap layer thickness and by photogeneration of charge carriers.
We present photoluminescence (PL) and magneto-PL studies on CdMnTe/CdMgTe quantum wells using resonant quantum well excitation and above-barrier excitation. The 2DHG is characterized essentially by the intensity and spectral position of the positively charged exciton (trion X+) with respect to the neutral exciton (X0). We describe the observed 2DHG behaviour consistently by a model based on specific tunneling times of electrons and holes, which depend on the cap thickness and the power and photon energy of the optical excitation radiation.
