Abstract. Conduction electrons moving in a non-homogeneous field of coherent light beams (CLB) are investigated. It is shown that a conduction electron simultaneously takes part in two oscillations. More exactly, an electron oscillate with the frequency w and in addition, it carry out a forced oscillation with the frequency (w is the CLB frequency) inside a one-dimensional potential well that is induced in the semiconductor by the CLB.
Keywords: semiconductors, conduction electrons, coherent light beams, electronic transport, electron motion, frequency, potential well, force.
