Diffusion coefficient of electrons in silicon

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental and theoretical analysis of the diffusivity of electrons in Si as function of temperature, field strength, and field direction has been performed with the Monte Carlo procedure, which correctly interprets both the new diffusion data and other well-established electron transport properties.

Fluctuations and noise of hot carriers in semiconductor materials and devices

TL;DR: In this paper, the macroscopic expressions for noise sources are shown not specific to the hot carrier regime, though dependent on the electric field strength, and the microscopic noise source expressions, via the transition rates, give a unified view of the noise sources.

Noise and Diffusion of Hot Carriers

J. P. Nougier
TL;DR: In this paper, the bias point is determined as the intersection of the characteristics of the system under consideration and of the output circuit, and the noise depends partly on the inner properties of a system.

Transport Properties of GaAs

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the absolute values of the electron drift velocity, the diffusion coefficient, and the trapping time as a function of the electric field and showed that the experimental results are in agreement with the Butcher-Fawcett theory.

Drift velocity of electrons and holes and associated anisotropic effects in silicon

TL;DR: In this article, the drift velocity of electrons and holes in high purity silicon has been measured, with the time of flight technique, as a function of electric field (0·1−50 KV/cm) at several temperatures between 77 and 300°K.

Calculation of the hot electron diffusion rate for GaAs

W. Fawcett, +1 more
- 11 Aug 1969 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, Monte Carlo calculations predict a strong anisotropy of the high field electron diffusion rate for GaAs, which is a strong indicator of high-energy electron diffusion.

Transport Properties of CdTe
