Phys. Rev. Lett. 70, 3319–3322 (1993)Coherent submillimeter-wave emission from Bloch oscillations in a semiconductor superlatticeReceived 22 January 1993; published in the issue dated 24 May 1993 We directly detect the coherent electromagnetic radiation originating from Bloch oscillations of charge carriers in an electrically biased semiconductor superlattice structure. The oscillation frequency can be tuned with the applied bias field from 0.5 THz to more than 2 THz, the detection limit of our measurement system. © 1993 The American Physical Society URL:
