anschwingen

German to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng optisch gepumpte Halbleitervorrichtung
Zur Unterdrueckung derartiger vertikal propagierender parasitaerer Moden ist vorgesehen, die fuer den elektrischen Betrieb erforderlichen Kontaktmetallisierungen mit einer vergleichsweise geringen Reflektivitaet auszubilden, die insbesondere so gering gewaehlt ist, dass vertikale Moden nicht anschwingen koennen.

Could anyone tell me what "anschwingen" means and how it is expressed in English?

Many thanks
