Electrodynamic response of charge carriers in doubly periodic semiconductor n-type superlattices in a permanent homogeneous magnetic field

Аннотация

The electromagnetic response of the two-dimensional electron gas of a surface superlattice placed in a perpendicular permanent homogeneous magnetic field is studied. The magneto–optic Kerr and Faraday effects are calculated. The conditions of transparency of model semiconductor structures in the terahertz frequency region are found and the field-induced spin density of the electronic states is calculated. The features of the frequency dependences of complex Kerr and Faraday angles are connected with the symmetry of the spinor states of the charge carriers in a superlattice.
