Abstracts

We report on investigations of photovoltaic response of Si-MOSFETs subjected to terahertz radiation in high magnetic fields. Then a DC drain-to-source voltage is developed that shows singularities in magnetic fields corresponding to paramagnetic resonance conditions. These singularities are investigated as a function of incident frequency, temperature and two-dimensional carrier density. We tentatively attribute these resonances to spin transitions of the electrons bound to Si dopants and discuss the possible physical mechanism of the photovoltaic signal generation.
