Abstract

Resonant microwave absorption of a two-dimensional electron system in an AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure excited by a near-field technique was investigated. Along with collective magnetoplasmon modes, we observed resonance that precisely follows the cyclotron resonance (CR) position and revealed no signs of collective plasma depolarization shift. We show that the discovered CR mode is absent in the Faraday geometry, and is localized at the edge of the exciting metal electrode. Such behavior points in favor of the single-particle Azbel'-Kaner nature of the discovered resonance.
