Mv. Burtyka et al., INTERACTION BETWEEN CHARGE-CARRIER FLOWS AND ELECTROMAGNETIC OSCILLATIONS IN INHOMOGENEOUS SEMICONDUCTORS, UKRAINSKII FIZICHESKII ZHURNAL, 38(9), 1993, pp. 1357-1368
The theory of interaction between electromagnetic oscillations and a c
harge carrier flow in metal-semiconductor and semiconductor-metal stru
ctures is derived. A mechanism of a collisionless decrease of oscillat
ions is discussed. The possibility of instabilities in nonequilibrium
semiconductor plasma on the p - n junction surface is predicted and co
rresponding increments are found.
