The binding energy of a shallow acceptor in an isolated quantum well of the CdTe / Cd 1-x Mn x Te system has been investigated in an external magnetic field, assuming an empirical relationship between the barrier height and the magnetic field. Photoionization cross-sections for different magnetic fields have been estimated. Taking into account the confined phonons in the electron-phonon interaction, carrier capture times for various magnetic fields and different hydrostatic pressures have been computed. The results obtained are discussed in the light of the existing literature.
