Phase diagram of diluted magnetic semiconductor quantum wells
The phase diagram of diluted magnetic semiconductor quantum wells is investigated. The interaction between the carriers in the hole gas can lead to first-order ferromagnetic transitions, which remain abrupt in applied fields. These transitions can be induced by magnetic fields or, in double-layer systems, by electric fields. We make a number of precise experimental predictions for observing these first-order phase transitions.
