Abstract

We study ballistic electron transport in freely suspended AlAs/GaAs microstructures containing a high mobility two-dimensional electron gas with square lattice of antidots. We found that the magnetoresistance of the samples demonstrates commensurability oscillations both for the case of non-suspended and suspended devices. The temperature dependence of the commensurability oscillations is similar for both cases. However, the critical dc current, that suppresses these oscillations, in suspended samples is three times lower than in non-suspended ones. The observed phenomenon can be explained by peculiarities of the heat transport in membranes.
