Abstract

Description

High electric-field transport parameters are calculated using an analytical Fokker-Planck approach (FPA), where transport is modeled as a drift-diffusion process in energy space. We have applied the theory to the case of Si, taking into account the six intervalley phonons, aiming to test the FPA. The obtained results show a quite reasonable agreement with experimental data and Monte Carlo simulations confirming in this case that the FPA works very well for high enough electric fields.
