Chaos and rectification of electromagnetic wave in a lateral semiconductor superlattice
preprint
posted on 2006-04-12, 16:10 authored by Kirill Alekseev, P. Pietilainen, A.A. Zharov, Feodor KusmartsevWe find the conditions for a rectification of electromagnetic wave in a lateral semiconductor superlattice with a high mobility of electrons. The rectification is assisted by a transition to a dissipative chaos at a very high mobility. We show that mechanism responsible for the rectification is a creation of warm electrons in the superlattice miniband caused by an interplay of the effects of nonlinearity and finite band width.
