Recent successes in molecular beam (MBE) epitaxial growth of diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) artificial microstructures are now generating structures in which optically excited lower dimensional electronic and magnetic phenomena can be investigated. We consider an example which illustrates the present early state of affairs: transient magnetic polarons in connection with localized quasi 2-dimensional (2D) electronic excitations. We also comment on recent measurements and antiferromagnetic ordering in ultrathin layers in magnetic semiconductors.
