The effect of microwave radiation on low-temperature electron magnetotransport in a square antidot lattice with a period of d = 0.8 micrometer based on a GaAs quantum well with two occupied energy subbands E1 and E2 is investigated. It is shown that, owing to a significant difference between the electron densities in the subbands, commensurability oscillations of the resistance in the investigated antidot lattice are observed only for the first subband. It is found that microwave irradiation under the cyclotron resonance condition results in the formation of resistance oscillations periodic in the inverse magnetic field in the region of the main commensurability peak. It is established that the period of these oscillations corresponds to the period of magneto-intersubband oscillations. The observed effect is explained by the increase in the rate of intersubband scattering caused by the difference between the electron heating in the subbands E1 and E2.

Magneto-intersubband resistance oscillations (MISO) of highly mobile 2D electrons in symmetric GaAs quantum wells with two populated subbands are studied in magnetic fields tilted from the normal to the 2D electron layer at different temperatures $T$ . Decrease of MISO amplitude with temperature increase is observed. At moderate tilts the temperature decrease of MISO amplitude is consistent with decrease of Dingle factor due to reduction of quantum electron lifetime at high temperatures. At large tilts new regime of strong MISO suppression with the temperature is observed. Proposed model relates this suppression to magnetic entanglement between subbands, leading to beating in oscillating density of states. The model yields corresponding temperature damping factor: $A_{MISO}(T)=X/sinh(X)$, where $X=2pi^2kTdelta f$ and $delta f$ is difference frequency of oscillations of density of states in two subbands. This factor is in agreement with experiment. Fermi liquid enhancement of MISO amplitude is observed.
The magnetotransport of highly mobile 2D electrons in wide GaAs single quantum wells with three populated subbands placed in titled magnetic fields is studied. The bottoms of the lower two subbands have nearly the same energy while the bottom of the third subband has a much higher energy ($E_1approx E_2<<E_3$). At zero in-plane magnetic fields magneto-intersubband oscillations (MISO) between the $i^{th}$ and $j^{th}$ subbands are observed and obey the relation $Delta_{ij}=E_j-E_i=kcdothbaromega_c$, where $omega_c$ is the cyclotron frequency and $k$ is an integer. An application of in-plane magnetic field produces dramatic changes in MISO and the corresponding electron spectrum. Three regimes are identified. At $hbaromega_c ll Delta_{12}$ the in-plane magnetic field increases considerably the gap $Delta_{12}$, which is consistent with the semi-classical regime of electron propagation. In contrast at strong magnetic fields $hbaromega_c gg Delta_{12}$ relatively weak oscillating variations of the electron spectrum with the in-plane magnetic field are observed. At $hbaromega_c approx Delta_{12}$ the electron spectrum undergoes a transition between these two regimes through magnetic breakdown. In this transition regime MISO with odd quantum number $k$ terminate, while MISO corresponding to even $k$ evolve $continuously$ into the high field regime corresponding to $hbaromega_c gg Delta_{12}$
We observe a new type of magneto-oscillations in the photovoltage and the longitudinal resistance of a two-dimensional electron system. The oscillations are induced by microwave irradiation and are periodic in magnetic field. The period is determined by the microwave frequency, the electron density, and the distance between potential probes. The phenomenon is accounted for by coherent excitation of edge magnetoplasmons in the regions near the contacts and offers perspectives for the development of new tunable microwave and terahertz detection schemes and spectroscopic techniques.
Slow magnetooscilations of the conductivity are observed in a 75 nm wide quantum well at heating of the two-dimensional electrons by a high-intensity surface acoustic wave. These magnetooscillations are caused by intersubband elastic scattering betwe en the symmetric and asymmetric subbands formed due to an electrostatic barrier in the center of the quantum well. The tunneling splitting between these subbands as well as the intersubband scattering rate are determined.

We calculate the transport properties of multilayer graphene, considering the effect of multisubband scattering in a high density regime, where higher subbands are occupied by charge carriers. To calculate the conductivity of multilayer graphene, we use the coupled multiband Boltzmann transport theory while fully incorporating the multiband scattering effects. We show that the allowed scattering channels, screening effects, chiral nature of the electronic structure, and type of impurity scatterings determine the transport behavior of multilayer graphene. We find that the conductivity of multilayer graphene shows a sudden change when the carriers begin to occupy the higher subbands, and therefore a large negative transconductance (NTC) appears as the carrier density varies. These phenomena arise mostly from the intersubband scattering and the change in the density of states at the band touching density. Based on our results, it is possible to build novel devices utilizing the large NTC in multilayer graphene.
