Abstract

The paramagnetic splitting of a light-hole level in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well is experimentally measured by the method of measuring the polarized photoluminescence in the magnetic field. The phenomenon of giant splitting, which was previously predicted theoretically and leads to an increase in the g factor of a light hole to 9.4, is found.
