Within the superfield approach, we consider the duality between the
supersymmetric Maxwell-Chern-Simons and self-dual theories in three spacetime
dimensions. Using a gauge embedding method, we construct the dual theory to the
self-dual model interacting with a matter superfield, which turns out to be not
the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory coupled to matter, but a more complicated
model, with a ``restricted'' gauge invariance. We stress the difficulties in
dualizing the self-dual field coupled to matter into a theory with complete
gauge invariance. After that, we show that the duality, achieved between these
two models at the tree level, also holds up to the lowest order quantum
corrections.Comment: 18 pages,2 figures, revtex4, v2: corrected reference
