Our calculations are devoted to heavy-hole magnetoexcitons. As expected, we found that the binding energy of a heavy-hole exciton bound to a donor-ionized impurity increases with the Al concentration, as well as with the applied magnetic field. Otherwise, we found that it is higher than the corresponding for heavy-hole excitons without impurities reported by other authors. Moreover we found that the binding energy of the heavy-hole exciton bound to a donor-ionized impurity is higher (lower) for larger (smaller) quantum well width. Finally we found that our results are in very good agreement when we compare with experimental and theoretical reports.pdf8 páginasenginfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessArtículo científico10.1016/j.physe.2010.06.021Campos magnéticosEnergía mecánicaCampos electromagnéticosEnergía mecánica
