RKKY exchange interaction within the parabolic quantum-well

Indirect magnetic exchange in a semimagnetic semiconductor heterostructure with the parabolic quantum-well barrier potential is considered. Within the analytical method, we provide the exact derivation of the spatial dependence of the RKKY exchange integral. Using the effective dimensionality approach, we show that the spectral dimensionality of the free electron (hole) system equals four. We prove, that the RKKY exchange integral shows conventional, sign reversal variation with the 2kF period, however, the envelope function falls off in a manner characteristic to 4D systems.
