Title :
Some instabilities of electromagnetic wave propagation through drifting semiconductor magnetoplasmas
Abstract :
The dispersion equation for electromagnetic wave propagation through drifting semiconductor magnetoplasmas has been derived for general orientations of carrier drift velocities and propagation vector relative to the dc magnetic field. This is used to show the possibility of two instabilities of wave propagation that are not diffusion limited to low frequencies.
