We report photomodulation spectroscopy measurements of the pressure dependence of the optical transition in Zn1–yMnyOxTe1–x alloys that is associated with the lowest Gamma conduction band (termed E subband). The pressure-induced energy shift of the E transition is nonlinear and much weaker as compared to the change of the direct band gap of Zn0.88Mn0.12Te. The weak pressure dependence of the E transition can be fully understood based on the band anticrossing model in which the E subband results from an interaction between the extended ZnMnTe conduction-band states and the localized O electronic states. ©2004 American Institute of Physics.
