Zusammenfassung

1964 sind von theoretischer und experimenteller Seite Ergebnisse mitgeteilt worden, die intensive nachfolgende Untersuchungen auslösten. Dies führte schließlich zu einem völlig neuartigen Mikrowellenbauelement. Die Experimente sind mit dem Namen J.B. Gunn verbunden und die theoretischen Analysen mit den Namen B.K. Ridley, T.B. Watkins und C. Hilsum. Die Interpretation der Experimente Gunns mit Hilfe der Vorschläge von Ridley, Watkins und Hilsum ist H. Kroemer zu verdanken. Das Auftreten von Hochfelddomänen in einem geeigneten Halbleiter (vgl. Abschnitt I) bezeichnet man als den Gunn-Effekt. Das zugrundeliegende physikalische Prinzip der Streuung von Elektronen in einen Zustand verminderter Beweglichkeit und dem damit verbundenen Auftreten einer negativen differentiellen Beweglichkeit bezeichnet man als den Elektronen-Transfer-Effekt. Ein anschauliches Verständnis der wesentlichen Züge des Gunn-Effektes ist relativ leicht möglich. Es läßt sich auch eine phänomenologische Beschreibung in analytischer Form geben, die gut mit Rechnerergebnissen übereinstimmt. Trotzdem sind viele — auch grundlegende — Parameter selbst mit großem Aufwand nicht rechnerisch zu erfassen.
