For appropriate doping values, a domain wall separating two electric-field domains moves downstream below a first critical current, it remains stationary between this value and a second critical current, and then moves upstream above. These conclusions are reached by using a comparison principle to analyze a discrete drift-diffusion model, and validated by numerical simulations. Possible experimental realizations are suggested.engWave fronts may move upstream in semiconductor superlatticesjournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.61.486http://journals.aps.org/pre/pdf/10.1103/PhysRevE.61.4866open access530.1Electric-field domainsGaas-Alas superlatticesNegative differential conductivityCharge-density wavesTransport phenomenonSelf oscillationsBifurcationStabilityDynamicsFísica matemática
