Optical studies of 2DEGs in ZnSe quantum wells in high magnetic fields.

Optical properties of a two-dimensional electron gas in ZnSe/(Zn,Be,Mg)Se quantum well structures have been examined by means of photoluminescence and reflectivity techniques in external magnetic fields up to 50 T. For these structures the Fermi energy of the two-dimensional electron gas is falling in the range between the trion binding energy and the exciton binding energy, which keeps the dominating role of Coulombic interaction between electrons and photoexcited holes. Characteristic peculiarities of optical spectra are discussed.
