The dispersion and field structure of in-plane propagating p-polarized waves in n-GaAs/AlAs superlattice is studied in the frequency range below 10 THz in the presence of the steady magnetic field which is perpendicu­lar both to the direction of propagation and periodicity. The existence of non-localized photon-phonon-plasmon modes as well as the magnetic-field­-controlled mode localization at selected set of interfaces is predicted.
