Abstract
We investigate the doping level, hydrostatic pressure, temperature and superlattice parameter dependence of the perpendicular negative differential velocity (NDV) of GaAs/AlAs superlattices. The results show that NDV is a single Γ miniband effect. A qualitative agreement is found with Esaki's negative effective mass model, although a few limitations of this model are pointed out and some improvement is suggested.
