Diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) are employed as a ground for the analysis of spin interactions between the band charge-carriers and the localized spin moments of magnetic ions. In 1995, multiple paramagnetic resonance (MPR) Raman scattering was discovered in narrow QWs of the (Cd,Mn,Mg)Te family: a large number of equidistant Raman repetitions, with energy shifts being integer multiples of the Zeeman splitting of the intra-shell Mn 3d5 electrons. We report on a previously unknown series of B-field dependent Raman lines in MPR conditions in a model DMS QW nanostructure. The observed series of lines shows up in the gaps between the main MPR peaks in a narrow range of B-fields (around 6 T) and seems to manifest a fractional effect: a spin flip of a half-integer number of Mn 3d5 electrons. The peaks reveal remarkably weak dependence of the intensity on the peak number. We demonstrate some main peculiarities of the observed series of lines, discuss the appropriateness of the fractional- as well as alternative interpretations and we discuss steps towards a further exploration of the effect.
