Abstract
It is shown that under resonance tunneling conditions the energy structure of electric-field domains in doped superlattices is substantially different from a resonance structure. As the impurity concentration decreases, the domain walls become wider and the current hysteresis becomes narrower (collapses) as a result of the mismatch of the resonance levels in the region of a domain wall. A physical interpretation of the criterion for the existence of electric-field domains is given.
