Resonant magnetopolaron effects in parabolic quantum wells in a tilted magnetic field

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

We study the resonant magnetopolaron effects in parabolic quantum wells in a tilted magnetic field. The renormalization of the first excited level, which is resonant with the ground state level plus one longitudinal-optical phonon is calculated at the resonance using an improved resonance approximation to be ΔE=γαβ where α is the polaron coupling constant. The exponent β and the factor γ are calculated in dependence on the tilt angle of the magnetic field and the confinement energy.
