Wannier-Stark Ladders and Bloch Oscillations in Superlattices
Abstract
Conduction electrons in real crystalline solids behave very much like electrons in free space, moving in straight lines between collisions when subject to an electric field. But in an ideal (although cold) world, free from scattering by impurities, imperfections and thermal vibrations of the lattice, how would conduction electrons behave? That question, answered in principle long ago in light of the then newly developed quantum mechanics, was purely academic until recently.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
