Weiss Oscillations in Surface Acoustic Wave Propagation

Abstract

The interaction of a surface acoustic wave (SAW) with a a two-dimensional electron gas in a periodic electric potential and a classical magnetic field is considered. We calculate the attenuation of the SAW and its velocity change and show that these quantities exhibit Weiss oscillations.
