Abstract

We present a quantum-mechanical treatment of the spatial localization of single free carriers resulting from the large exchange interaction between them and the lattice magnetic ions in dilute magnetic semiconductors. The formalism is applied to the Cd1-xMnxTe system, and the implications for the observation of spatial localization of single free carriers described.
