Diluted magnetic semiconductor heterovalent AlSb/InAs/ZnMnTe quantum well (QW) structures with an electron channel have been designed and grown applying molecular-beam epitaxy. The enhanced magnetic properties of QWs as a result of the exchange interaction with Mn2+ ions, are proved by measuring the microwave radiation induced spin polarized electric currents.

We note, that a similar Jx (T) behavior has also been observed recently in (Cd,Mn)Te/(Cd,Mg)Te QWs where, in contrast to the structures studied here, (Cd,Mn)Te thin layers were directly implemented in the QW.
