We consider the motion of ballistic electrons within a superlattice miniband under the influence of an alternating electric field. We show that the interaction of electrons with the self-consistent electromagnetic field generated by the…
We consider the motion of ballistic electrons in a miniband of a semiconductor superlattice (SSL) under the influence of an external, time-periodic electric field. We use the semi-classical balance-equation approach which incorporates…
We study the effects of dissipation on electron transport in a semiconductor superlattice with an applied bias voltage and a magnetic field that is tilted relative to the superlattice axis.In previous work, we showed that although the…
Spatio-temporal chaos is predicted to occur in n-doped semiconductor superlattices with sequential resonant tunneling as their main charge transport mechanism. Under dc voltage bias, undamped time-dependent oscillations of the current (due…
We study the motion of electrons in a single miniband of a semiconductor superlattice driven by THz electric field polarized along the growth direction. We work in the semiclassical balance-equation model, including different elastic and…
Weakly coupled semiconductor superlattices under dc voltage bias are excitable systems with many degrees of freedom that may exhibit spontaneous chaos at room temperature and act as fast physical random number generator devices.…
We show that a tilted magnetic field transforms the structure and THz dynamics of charge domains in a biased semiconductor superlattice. At critical field values, strong coupling between the Bloch and cyclotron motion of a miniband electron…
Weakly coupled semiconductor superlattices under dc voltage bias are nonlinear systems with many degrees of freedom whose nonlinearity is due to sequential tunneling of electrons. They may exhibit spontaneous chaos at room temperature and…
We study a one-dimensional chain of identical atoms with two electronic orbitals and two electrons per atom, subject to an external oscillating pressure that periodically modulates the lattice spacing. This leads to time-dependent intra-…
We study theoretically the dynamical rectification of a terahertz AC electric field, ie. the DC current and voltage response to the incident radiation, in strongly coupled semiconductor superlattices. We address the problem of stability…
We present fully quantum-mechanical magnetotransport calculations for short-period lateral superlattices with one-dimensional electrostatic modulation. A non-perturbative treatment of both magnetic field and modulation potential proves to…
We examine phenomenon of electromagnetic transparency in semiconductor superlattices (having various miniband dispersion laws) in the presence of multi-frequency periodic and non-periodic electric fields. Effects of induced transparency and…
It has been found that periodically closely spaced vacancies on a graphite sheet cause a significant rearrange-ment of its electronic spectrum: metallic waveguides with a high density of states near the Fermi level are formed along the…
We present a novel scheme to stabilize high-frequency domain oscillations in semiconductor superlattices by a time-delayed feedback loop. Applying concepts from chaos control theory we propose to control the spatio-temporal dynamics of…
We consider a high-frequency response of electrons in a single miniband of superlattice subject to dc and ac electric fields. Action of ac electric field causes oscillations of electron's effective mass in miniband, which result in a…
We propose a coupled system for the nonlinear interaction between high-frequency, circularly polarized, intense electromagnetic (EM) waves and low-frequency electron-density perturbations, driven by the EM-wave ponderomotive force, in an…
We address the increase of electron drift velocity that arises in semiconductor superlattices (SLs) subjected to constant electric and magnetic fields. It occurs if the magnetic field possesses nonzero components both along and…
Generation of terahertz harmonics by frequency multiplication with a semiconductor superlattice due to an excitation of relaxation oscillations by incident waves is investigated theoretically. It is shown that the relaxation oscillations…
Based on first-principles calculations we showed that superlattices of periodically repeated junctions of hydrogen saturated silicon nanowire segments having different lengths and diameters form multiple quantum well structures. The band…
