Magneto-Intersubband Oscillations under the Conditions of Overlapping Landau Bands

Abstract

Magneto-intersubband oscillations in a highly mobile two-subband electron system with one-dimensional periodic modulation of the potential under the conditions of overlapping Landau bands have been experimentally investigated. A significant modification of magneto-intersubband oscillations relative to the amplitude and phase is found: the amplitude decreases and the reversal of magneto-intersubband oscillations occurs in some ranges of magnetic fields. The obtained experimental data can be explained by a two-humped structure of the electron energy spectrum in Landau bands.
