Abstract

The quantum states of carriers in 2D doubly periodic n-type semiconducting superlattices without spatial inversion symmetry in an external magnetic field are calculated in the one-electron approximation. It is shown that the spin-orbit interaction and spin splitting in the magnetic field may lead to the occurrence of the photovoltaic effect in a 2D electron gas without an inversion center and to a nonzero spin magnetization of the electron gas in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field.
