Abstract

The magnetic-field-strength and quantum-well-width dependence of the ground-state energies of a magnetoexciton in a GaAs/Ga1xAlxAs quantum-well structure are studied for arbitrary magnetic field strengths. The results show that the energy of the magnetoexciton will increase with increasing quantum-well width and magnetic field strength. We also found that the magnetoexciton in the le,h=1 state is more stable than in the le,h=2 state.
