Phonon-assisted cyclotron resonance (PACR) in GaAs quantum well (QW) structure is investigated via multi-photon absorption process when electrons interact with the confined acoustic phonon through deformation potential. The additional peaks in the absorption spectrum due to transitions between Landau levels accompanied with the emission and absorption of phonons are indicated. The dependence of absorption power on the temperature, magnetic field and well width is presented. Using profile method, we obtain PACR-linewidth as profiles of the curves. The temperature, magnetic field and well width dependences of the PACR-linewidth are investigated. The results are compared with those in the case of mono-photon absorption process, as well as in the electron-bulk acoustic phonon interaction. The results show that the multi-photon absorption process is strong enough to be detected in PACR.
