Abstract
Dynamic current-voltage characteristics of a bulk n-InSb showed instability in its avalanching region under a nearly parallel strong magnetic field, and the microwave emission from it was also observed under this instability condition. Hole plasma sound wave instabilities excited in the bulk n-InSb under a magnetic field will give rise to the microwave emission and S-type differential negative resistance in the I-V characteristics.
