Abstract

When a high-mobility two-dimensional electron system is subject to weak electric and magnetic fields, its current-voltage characteristics exhibit a plateau signaling a state with zero differential resistance. At low temperatures, this state emerges over a continuous range of electric and magnetic fields extending well below the onset of the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations. At higher temperatures, the state evolves into a minimum which becomes weaker and shifts to higher dc fields with increasing temperature.
