Abstract :
Studies of strong terahertz (THz) electroluminescence in several SiC natural superlattices allowed us to reveal changes in the emission spectra, which are in well consistency with the theory of electron Bloch oscillations, and to discover new channels of intensive THz electroluminescence.
