摘要
Time-resolved photoluminescence measurements show that the decay time for charged excitons in a GaAs two-dimensional electron gas increases by an order of magnitude at high magnetic fields. Unlike neutral excitons, the charged exciton center-of-mass is spatially confined in a ''magnetically adjustable quantum dot'' by the cyclotron orbit and the quantum well. The inhibited recombination is explained by a reduced phase coherence volume of the magnetically confined charged excitons. [S0163-1829(98)51748-1].
