Generation of THz signals based on quasi-ballistic electron reflections in double-heterojunction structures

The generation of THz signals by the periodic quasi-ballistic resonant motion of electrons on the basis of the combined action of electron acceleration in a potential well and reflection at the heterointerface is demonstrated by a Monte Carlo simulation. The electron dynamics in In0.52Al0.48As/In0.5...
