  ABSTRACT: We present a theoretical investigation of the influence of photo-excitation and spin wave scattering on magnetization of the (Ga,Mn)As diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) quantum wires (QWRs) and quantum wells (QWs). Double time temperature dependent Green’s function formalism is used for the description of dispersion and spectral density of the systems. Our analysis indicates that spin wave scattering plays an influential role in magnetism of both systems while application of light is insignificant in quantum wells. In the absence of spin wave scattering and at sufficiently low temperatures, a result corresponding to the specific heat of dominating electronic contributions in metals is obtained in QWs. In QWRs, however, this magnetic property is found to vary with T1/2 and α2T1/2 so that light matter coupling has a leading effect on lower temperatures, where α is the light matter coupling factor and T is the temperature.
