Pendulum limit, chaos and phase-locking in the dynamics of ac-driven semiconductor superlattices

We describe a limiting case when nonlinear dynamics of an ac-driven semiconductor superlattice in the miniband transport regime is governed by a periodically forced and damped pendulum. We find analytically the conditions for a transition to chaos and consider an influence of temperature on the effe...
