  • Abstract
    The current oscillations with frequency of the order of plasma frequency in the submicron GaAs n+-n-p-p+ structure are obtained by Monte Carlo particle simulation. The streaming plasma instability responsible for the current oscillations at near ballistic transport conditions is shown.
