1. Solution of the Boltzmann Equation under low-field conditions

   05 Feb 2011 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska

   In this presentation it is explained clearly when one can use the relaxation approximation and when one needs to use Rode's iterative method to calculate the low-field mobility in semiconductors. At the end examples are given of the effective and Hall mobilities which, as can be seen from the...

2. Acoustic Phonon Scattering Explained

   05 Feb 2011 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska

   In this lecture notes we derive and explain acoustic deformation potential scattering as it applies to transport calculations in covalent semiconductors.

3. Boltzmann Transport Equation and Scattering Theory

   Teaching Materials | 01 Feb 2011 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska

   In this presentation we give simple derivation of the Boltzmann transport equation, describe the derivation of Fermi's Golden Rule, and present the derivation of most common scattering mechanisms in semiconductors.

4. Bulk Monte Carlo: Implementation Details and Source Codes Download

   Teaching Materials | 01 Jun 2010 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska, Stephen M. Goodnick

   The Ensemble Monte Carlo technique has been used now for over 30 years as a numerical method to simulate nonequilibrium transport in semiconductor materials and devices, and has been the subject of numerous books and reviews. In application to transport problems, a random walk is generated to...
