The magnetoconductivity of n-Si at a strong but not quantizing magnetic field is presented for 77 OK. In contrast to weak magnetic fields a superlinearity of the current-voltage characteristics is obtained. This agrees with theoretical predictions of the inversion of the ratio of the mean carrier energies and repopulation of electrons between the valleys.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
