A Monte Carlo technique for quantum transport in semiconductors
1986
Abstract A Monte Carlo technique to solve the Liouville's equation for an electron-phonon system in semiconductors is presented. The numerical procedure accounts for quantum features such as collision duration and intracollisional field effect. The semiclassical Boltzmann formalism can be easily recovered. A comparison of the results obtained with the proposed technique and with a traditional ensemble Monte Carlo method is presented.
