  text: Since the realization of semiconductor heterostructures vertical transport
    of electrically injected carriers has been one of the most interesting topics
    in semiconductor physics. Precise engineering of semiconductor layers and thus
    electronic energy levels allows the tailoring of transport properties over a wide
    range and has even led to the invention of semiconductor devices relying on ballistic
    electron transport. In addition, negative differential resistance (NDR) can be
    realized by using tunneling diodes containing double-barrier heterostructures
    or a superlattice structure.5,6 Actually, the proposal of Esaki and Tsu5 to use
    electronic Bloch oscillations in the miniband of a semiconductor superlattice
    to realize NDR marked the starting point for the physics and applications of semiconductor
    heterostructures.
