6. It is also assumed that the free holes do not recombine with 3d-electrons of magnetic ions. This might restrict the possible design for the structures based on (A,Cr)B compounds. See J. Blinowski, P. Kacman, and J. A. Majewski, Phys. Rev. B 53, 9524 (1996).
7. z, the projection of the total angular momentum along the growth direction, if the in-plane wave vector vanishes (i.e., at the subband minima). Hence, the effective field of a given hole is either parallel or antiparallel to the QW growth direction. See, for example, I. A. Merkulov and K. V. Kavokin, Phys. Rev. B 52, 1751 (1995).
