THz-generation in semiconductor superlattice in the external tilted magnetic field

We study effects of the external tilted magnetic field on the generation of sub-THz/THz oscillations in the semiconductor superlattice. We show that this field provides the increased power of harmonics in the THz range. Changing the tilt angle essentially influences the distribution of spectral power of current oscillations in the semiconductor superlattice.
