Interference of magnetointersubband and phonon-induced resistance oscillations in single GaAs quantum wells with two populated subbands
arXiv:0912.4366 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.81.155322
Abstract
Low-temperature electron magnetotransport in single GaAs quantum wells with two populated subbands is studied at large filling factors. Magneto-inter-subband (MIS) and acoustic-phonon induced oscillations of the dissipative resistance are found to be coexisting but interfering substantially with each other. The experiments show that amplitude of the MIS-oscillations enhances significantly by phonons, indicating "constructive interference" between the phonon scattering and the intersubband electron transitions. Temperature damping of the quantum oscillations is found to be related to broadening of Landau levels caused by considerable electron-electron scattering.
