Abstract
The giant Zeeman splitting of free excitons is measured in . Magneto-optical and magnetization data imply the ferromagnetic sign and a reduced magnitude of the effective exchange energy governing the interaction between ions and holes in GaN, . This finding corroborates the recent suggestion that the strong hybridization specific to nitrides and oxides leads to significant renormalization of the valence band exchange splitting.
