We have performed real time domain measurements of the electrical excitation on Corbino devices (measured with impedance-matching circuit) in order to determine the excitation and relaxation times. We have used Corbino devices of inner radius R1=100µm, outer radius R2=150µm and various mobilities (µ=8× 105 cm2/Vs, µ=1.6× 106 cm2/Vs). A pulse generator send through a high frequency cable rectangular pulses to the Corbino disc and via another high frequency cable the sample response, picked up from a 50 Ω serial resistor with the Corbino disc, is read on the oscilloscope. We have used rectangular shapes of 90-180 ns pulse width, 300 ns pulse period and from 0.2 V up to 1.0 V applied voltages. In this way we were able to determine relaxation times of a few nanoseconds according to previous measurements. The higher voltage the shorter response time due to the fact by increasing the applied voltage, the Landau levels are tilted more and more resulting in smaller tunnelling distance between the initial and final tunnelling states, therefore a higher tunnelling rate and consequently a smaller drift length of electrons. According to the drift model, at constant drift length, the response time of the sample should be inverse proportional to the applied voltage, but our measurements yield another dependence.
