ABSTRACT
The frequency modulation of the heterolaser radiation under the ultrasonic strain has been found out. The dynamic and static analysis of the spectral parameters change caused by the alternating strain has been fulfilled. A model is proposed for describing the experimental data, and their theoretical analysis is performed. It is demonstrated that the acousto-electron interaction is dominant under the action of surface waves in InGaAsP/InP laser heterostructures.
ABSTRACT
We have studied the acoustoelectric (AE) effect produced by surface acoustic waves (SAW) in a monolithic layered structure, composed of a piezodielectric LiNbO3 substrate and a La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 film. The experiments unexpectedly revealed in the longitudinal AE effect an anomalous contribution, invariant upon reversal of SAW propagation, which coexists with the ordinary (odd in wave vector) effect. The anomalous effect dominates near the metal-insulator transition, while the ordinary effect prevails at high and low temperatures. We show that the anomalous effect is caused by strong modulation of the film conductivity produced by the SAW elastic deformations.
