Abstract
centers have been unambigously identified in GaAs/(Ga,Al)As quantum wells by analysis of the dependence of the observed photoconductivity spectrum on the applied magnetic field and sample orientation. Theoretical investigations show that in magnetic fields of interest the transitions do not involve photoionization of the centers as has been previously supposed but proceed from the ground state to discrete - or -like levels, which lie above the N=0 and N=1 Landau-level energies, respectively. Tilting the sample leads to a predicted anticrossing of discrete - and -like levels. Excellent agreement with experiment is obtained without any adjustable parameters.
