摘要
The magnetic field dependence of long-wavelength infared laser emission has been studied in Pb1-XSnXSe diodes for compositions in the range 0<~x<~0.3. For x>0.15 the energy of the lowest transition decreases with increasing magnetic field whereas for x<0.15 this energy increases. This unique observation is consistent with a theory of magnetic energy levels proposed by Baraff and also strongly supports the inversion model for the energy bands in Pb-Sn chalcogenides. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
