Abstract

An oscillatory dependence of photoconductivity on photon energy has been observed in many semiconductors. In some semiconductors the amplitude of the oscillations depends strongly on the magnitude of the applied electric field, while in others it is independent of the electric field. Field-dependent oscillations have been successfully accounted for in the literature but no adequate explanation has been offered so far for the second type of oscillations. We propose that these oscillations are the result of variations in the optical absorption coefficient arising from exciton formation by second- or higher-order processes involving longitudinal optical phonons as well as the incident radiation.
