Microwave-induced resistance oscillations as a classical memory effect

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

By numerical simulations and analytical studies, we show that the phenomenon of microwave-induced resistance oscillations can be understood as a classical memory effect caused by re-collisions of electrons with scattering centers after a cyclotron period. We develop a Drude-like approach to magneto-transport in presence of a microwave field, taking account of memory effects, and find an excellent agreement between numerical and analytical results, as well as a qualitative agreement with experiment.
