Abstract
A procedure for finding corrections for the hot hole distribution functions obtained from absorption measurements on intersubband transitions of hot heavy and light holes in germanium in crossed electric and magnetic fields is proposed. This procedure is based on the multiple-valued dependence of the absorption on the photon energies of transitions from light holes to a subband split off as a result of the spin-orbit interaction. Taking these corrections into account improves the agreement between the gain for direct optical transitions between the light and heavy hole subbands calculated from measurements of the absorption in the near-infrared and direct measurements in the far-infrared.
