The line shape and position of cyclotron resonance in gated GaAs/GaAlAs heterojunctions with δ-doped layers of negatively charged beryllium acceptors, that provide strong potential fluctuations in the channels of the quasi-two-dimensional electron systems, are examined. Specifically, the magnetic quantum limit is considered when the electrons are localized in separate quantum Hall droplets in the valleys of the disorder potential. A model treating disorder and electron–electron interaction on an equal footing accounts for all of the principal experimental findings: blue shifts from the unperturbed cyclotron frequency that decrease when the electron density is reduced, surprisingly narrow lines in the magnetic quantum limit, and asymmetric lines due to additional oscillator strength on their high-frequency sides.
