摘要
It is shown that, within deep narrow quantum potential wells in systems based on semimagnetic semiconductors containing Mn2+ ions, both magnitude and sign of the exchange interaction between electrons in the conduction band and in the d-shell of a magnetic ion depend significantly on the spatial position of this ion. This situation allows magnetic polarons with zero magnetic moment to appear, for which the localized-electron-induced spatial distribution of polarization of the surrounding magnetic ions exhibits an antiferromagnetic character. The possibility of experimental detection of these "nonmagnetic" magnetic polarons is considered. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
