Abstract

Low-temperature magnetotransport in a quasi-two-dimensional electron system based on a selectively doped GaAs quantum well with two occupied quantum-confinement subbands with one-dimensional periodic modulation of a potential is investigated. It is shown that commensurability oscillations of the resistance in this electron system coexist with magneto-intersubband oscillations. It is found that, in addition to commen-surability oscillations, the one-dimensional periodic potential in the two-subband electron system leads to the modulation of the magneto-intersubband oscillation amplitude. The experimental results are explained by the formation of Landau bands in the quasi-two-dimensional electron system with one-dimensional periodic modulation of the potential.
