Microwave-induced magnetotransport phenomena in two-dimensional electron systems Importance of electrodynamic effects

摘要

We discuss possible origins of recently discovered microwave induced photoresistance oscillations in very-high-electron-mobility two-dimensional electron systems. We show that electrodynamic effects—the radiative decay, plasma oscillations, and retardation effects—are important under the experimental conditions, and that their inclusion in the theory is essential for understanding the discussed and related microwave induced magnetotransport phenomena.
