Abstract

We present a study of the Zener effect in the optical absorption of strongly coupled superlattices with both a magnetic and an electric field in growth direction. The in-plane continuum of electron states is discretized due to Landau quantization, which allows to directly observe the transition from discrete to continuum states due to Zener tunneling in a true 1D system.
