Electrically Detected Magnetic Resonance

We compare the results of electrically detected magnetic resonance in a 2D electron gas in Si/SiGe quantum wells with transport and magnetic resonance measurements on ferromagnetic Ga$\text{}_{1-x}$Mn$\text{}_{x}$As. The results lead us to the conclusion that observation of electrically detected magnetic resonance is possible only in the case of a slow spin relaxation, where the microwave resonant absorption leads to a noticeable change of spin magnetization.
