摘要
The excitonic properties of CdTe/Cd1-xMnxTe strained quantum wells (QWs) are calculated taking into account interface and electric field effects. Numerical results for CdTe/Cd0.68Mn0.32 QWs show that the broadening of the exciton-related photoluminescence spectra can be as large as 30 meV in the case of interfacial fluctuations of 3 monolayers in 50 Angstrom wide strained QWs subjected to a 100 kV/cm electric field.
