Abstract
Many - valley cubic semiconductors are optically isotropic crystals in near and medium IR range of spectrum. However, many - valley structure of energy bands gives rise to a number of peculiarities of optical characteristics. In this work it is shown theoretically tuperlattices depends on a light polarization. We also report about experimental observation of self - induced birefringence of intense IR light (C02 laser radiation) in bulk crystals of n - Ge.
