Mechanism of the optical detection of cyclotron resonance via emission from 2D electron gas in modulation doped quantum wells and in high electron mobility structures of GaAs/AlGaAs is discussed based on the results of time-resolved optical detection of cyclotron resonance. An important role of impact ionization processes is demonstrated. We also show that microwave radiation destroys emission enhancement at the Fermi level and the relevant mechanism is proposed.
