Low-frequency dispersion of the effective transverse conductivity in inhomogeneous media in strong magnetic field

On crystalline silicon specimens with a nonuniform carrier concentration distribution produced by an optical method, a dispersion of the effective transverse conductivity σ _⊥ ^eff (ω) is observed near the frequency ω≈ω_c=τ _⊥ ^?1 ≡ε/4πσ _⊥ ^eff . At ω<ω_c, an anomalous transverse effective conductivity is observed: σ _⊥ ^eff (ω) is greater than the transverse conductivity of a homogeneous specimen σ _⊥ ^h (ω) (in the frequency range studied in the experiment σ _⊥ ^h (ω) = const). Near ω≈ω_c, the conductivity σ _⊥ ^eff decreases, and, at ω>ω_c it coincides with σ _⊥ ^h .
