Prog. Phys , (2005); E. Schöll, Nonlinear Spatio-temporal Dynamics and Chaos in Semiconductors (CUP, 2001) Propagating domains can generate electromagnetic radiation at frequencies > 100 GHz [e.g. Schomberg, Renk et al., Appl.

24 V = 610 mv, θ = 40 o θ = 40 o Collector Emitter When θ = 0 o, there is only one region of negative differential velocity But when θ = 40 o, there are 4 and each creates a charge domain
25 V = 610 mv, θ = 40 o Collector Eventually, the domains merge into one fast superdomain which creates a large I(t) peak when it arrives at the collector Emitter Let s now compare Fourier power spectra of I(t) for θ = 0 o and θ = 40 o

40 Conclusions A tilted magnetic field strongly affects, and can significantly enhance, the transport characteristics of SLs even at room temperature. Increasing T quickly suppresses the B = 0 Esaki-Tsu peak in the vd(f) curve, but has a much smaller effect when a tilted magnetic field is applied. Increasing T can enhance the drift velocity peaks caused by the Bloch-cyclotron resonances At the presence of magnetic field electrons demonstrate much higher mobility, which amplifies DC- and ACcomponents of the current through SL, and also improves its frequency characteristics.
