title: Magnetization measurements of magnetic two-dimensional electron gases.
abstract: We directly measure the magnetization of both the conduction electrons and Mn2+ ions in (Zn,Cd,Mn)Se two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) by integrating them into ultrasensitive micromechanical magnetometers. The interplay between spin and orbital energy in these magnetic 2DEGs causes Landau level degeneracies at the Fermi energy. These Landau level crossings result in novel features in the de Haas-van Alphen oscillations, which are quantitatively reproduced by a simple model.
