摘要：

We show the coexistence of Wannier-Stark localization as monitored by photoconduction experiments, and of negative differential velocity (NDV) for electrons in a perpendicularly biased GaAs/AlAs superlattice. The critical electric field for the onset of NDV, and that for the appearance of localization as monitored optically are nearly the same, which exemplifies the fundamental link between Wannier-Stark quantization [Phys. Rev. 117, 432 (1960)], and Esaki-Tsu nonlinear transport [IBM J. Res. Dev. 14, 61 (1970)].
