Abstract

Based on new theory of nonlinear optical conductivity for an electron — phonon system, we calculate line widths for the nonlinear optical conductivity in a system of electron interacting with longitudinal optical phonons (LO) in doped semiconductor superlattices (DSSL). Our numerical results for a specific DSSL show that temperature dependence of the width is different and non monotonous in the region of low temperature. The results are compared with other theoretical results and recent experiments.
