Abstract

PURPOSE:To generate the electromagnetic wave of the far infrared without requiring a light source for incidence by a method wherein the electromagnetic wave having quantum energy close to the quantum energy of an optical phonon is positively fedback, and a current is flowed to a pi-junction or ni-junction. CONSTITUTION:Electrodes 4, 5 are fitted on both sides of a pin-junction 3 to flow the current from DC power source 6 thereto. Reflectors 1, 2 are arranged on the sides of the pin-junction 3 when the current is flowed to the pi-junction or the ni-junction, the electrons are raised to an excited level. The electrons raised to the excited level discharge the phonons and return to basic state again. Thereby, the phonons are discharged.
