Abstract
We study the critical field for the formation of Wannier-Stark ladders and Bloch oscillations in
GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs superlattices at low temperatures. From the results of photocurrent and transient four-wave mixing experiments, we conclude that the critical field is higher for superlattices with wide minibands than for superlattices, with narrow minibands. The explanation for this dependence is that intraminiband scattering due to LO-phonon emission is excluded in minibands narrower than the LO-phonon energy.
