Relaxation oscillations have been observed in field-ionised epitaxial nGaAs samples on a semi-insulating substrate. The decay times of excess electrons and light output are reduced by a transverse magnetic field, indicating the presence of free holes driven towards the surface or the interface by the Suhl effect.
