Magneto-optical phenomena in semiconductor superlattices

Abstract

The Faraday and birefringence effects due to infrared radiation in semiconductor superlattices under quantized magnetic field are investigated. It is shown that for non-degenerate electron gas in the one mini-band approximation the frequency behaviour of magneto-optical coefficients exhibit finite jumps at {omega}={eta}{omega}{sub c}{+-}2{Delta} ({omega} is the frequency of electromagnetic radiation, {omega}{sub c} is the cyclotron frequency and {Delta} is half band width). The natural birefringence and dichroism in superlattices are also calculated. (author). 9 refs, 1 fig.
