In this work we employ technique of optically detected cyclotron resonance for evaluation of the role of localization processes in CdTe/CdMnTe and CdMnTe/CdMgTe quantum well structures. From microwave-induced changes of excitonic emissions we evaluate magnitude of potential fluctuations (Stokes shift), correlate optically detected cyclotron resonance results with the results of time-resolved experiments and discuss nature of recombination processes in the limit of a strong localization.
