Abstract

We report on our magnetotransport measurements of GaAs/GaAlAs quantum cascade structures in a magnetic field of up to 62 T. We observe novel quantum oscillations in tunneling current that are periodic in reciprocal magnetic field. We explain these oscillations as intersubband magnetophonon resonance due to electron relaxation by emission of either single optical or acoustic phonons. Our work also provides a non-optical in situ measurement of intersubband separations in quantum cascade structures.
