Phenomena like Bloch oscillations and negative differential velocity in these structures have been studied using a variety of experimental techniques [1–5]. One particular point of interest has been the transition of the miniband regime to the Bloch oscillation regime with increasing electric field [6,7]. Cw spectra of strongly-coupled superlattices have evidenced that this transition is concomitant with a rapid field-induced ionization of the zero-field miniband exciton [5,8]. While it has been pointed out from the theoretical side that the field-induced ionization process strongly influences the coherent dynamics in the transition region [9], no systematic experimental investigation of the ionization process has been carried out so far.
