Abstract

We report giant crystal field splittings of Mn²⁺ electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) lines observed in ZnTe MnTe and,nu>CdTe MnTe superlattices. The EPR spectra of isolated Mn²⁺ ions diffused into the ZnTe or the CdTe layers provide a direct and precise measure of both the magnitude and the uniformity of strain produced by lattice mismatch between the superlattice constituents.
