UIWSPS-2014 17 UIWSPS-2014 18 Summary Current induced oscillations of differential conductivity of two-dimension electrons, placed in quantizing magnetic fields, are observed in GaAs quantum wells in Corbino geometry. The oscillations are periodic in the square of the inverse magnetic field and occur in Corbino rings with a width which is much lesser than the radius of the rings. The conductance oscillations are described by Zener tunneling between Landau orbits in the absence of the Hall electric field. An electronic state with zero-differential conductance is found in nonlinear response to an electric field E applied to two dimensional Corbino discs of highly mobile carriers placed in quantizing magnetic fields. The state occurs above a critical electric fieldE > Eth at low temperatures and is accompanied by an abrupt dip in the differential conductance. UIWSPS-2014 19
