Fourier transform analysis of irradiated Weiss oscillations

We present a theoretical approach to study the effect of microwave radiation on the magnetoresistance of a one-dimensional superlattice. In our proposal the magnetoresistance of a unidirectional spatial periodic potential (superlattice), is modulated by microwave radiation due to an interference effect between both, space and time-dependent potentials. The final magnetoresistance will mainly depend on the spatial period of the superlattice and the radiation frequency. %Then, by tuning either the spatial period of the superlattice or the radiation %frequency, the magnetoresistance can be strongly modified. We consider an approach to study these effects based on the fast Fourier transform of the obtained magnetorresistance profiles in function of the inverse of the magnetic field. Based on this theory we propose the design of a novel radiation sensor for the Terahertz band.} % We first study the FFT of the system for each potential individually. Then we study jointly the FFT of the system when the two types of potentials are simultaneously acting.
