Abstract

On the example of InSb we consider the influence of a strong homogeneous electrostatic field on the state of carriers in a narrow-band quantized cylindrical layer in the case of Kaine dispersion law. Explicit expressions for the energy spectrum and wave function envelopes of charge carriers in the heterolayer are obtained. It is shown that under action of the strong external field the rotational motion, with respect to angular variables, of charge carriers becomes oscillatory in a narrow cone of the azimuth angle. We have obtained corresponding selection rules and calculated the threshold frequencies of absorption for interband and intraband electro-optical transitions in the layer. The threshold frequencies are determined by the geometric sizes of the sample and the magnitude of the external field.
