Abstract
We review the occurrence of periodic or near periodic electric-field domains stimulated by bound-to-continuum transitions under the influence of infrared radiation in multiple uncoupled quantum wells. The conditions of formation of such domains and their stability are studied theoretically using the proposed phenomenological model.
