Abstract

The mechanisms of transitions between different regimes of current oscillations in a semiconductor superlattice in the presence of a tilted magnetic field at various temperatures have been studied. At relatively low temperatures, an increase in the applied voltage leads to a period-doubling bifurcation that causes a change in the dynamic regime. At increased temperatures, the transition takes place with the quenching of current oscillations.
