Abstracts

EN

Based on the results of optically detected magnetic resonance and time-resolved investigations we relate the observed lifetime shortening of intra-shell Mn^{2+} emission to spin dependent magnetic interactions between localized spins of Mn^{2+} ions and spins/magnetic moments of free carriers. We show that this mechanism is active in both bulk and in low dimensional structures, such as quantum wells, quantum dots, and nanostructures.
