  We present a microscopic calculation of transport in strongly doped
superlattices where domain formation is likely to occur. Our theoretical method
is based on a current formula involving the spectral functions of the system,
and thus allows, in principle, a systematic investigation of various
interaction mechanisms. Taking into account impurity scattering and optical
phonons we obtain a good quantitative agreement with existing experimental data
from Helgesen and Finstad (J. Appl. Phys. 69, 2689, (1991)). Furthermore the
calculated spectral functions indicate a significant increase of the average
intersubband spacing compared to the bare level differences which might explain
the experimental trend.
