Popis: We report studies of sequential resonant tunnelling in GaAs/AlGaAs multi-quantum well p-i-n structures in the presence of parallel magnetic fields up to 15 T. New features are observed which are attributed to inter-Landau level resonances involving a change of Landau index of +1 and +2. In one of the samples the tunnelling resonances saturate and shift with the magnetic field. This result may be related to the similar effects observed in coupled two-dimensional electron gases at high magnetic fields.
