A microscopic theory is presented for high-field miniband transport in a two-dimensional superlattice. The energy transfer to the lateral electron motion is taken into account as well as scattering on polar optical phonons. Oscillatory current anomalies appear when the optical phonon frequency is a

We address in this work the electronic conduction properties of superlattices (SL) along the growth axis, in the limit of narrow minibands. Experimental results on a series of \(\mathrm{GaAs} / \mathrm{AlAs}\) SLs are compared to earlier data on wide miniband samples, and to theoretical velocity-fie
Miniband transport in semiconductor superlattices in high electric and magnetic fields aligned parallel to the symmetry axis is studied within a quantum-kinetic approach that accounts for intra-collisional field effects of both fields and the heating of the lateral electron motion. Scattering on aco
The minibands of p-type ฮด-doping superlattices (SLs) in GaAs are studied in dependence on acceptor sheet doping concentrations N A and SL periods d. The calculations rely on effective mass theory, applied to the 8 valence band hole gas. Hole-hole interaction is selfconsistently taken into account, i
