An Analytical Model for the Electron Energy Relaxation Time
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an empirical model for the electron energy relaxation time. It is based on Monte-Carlo simulation results, and is applicable to all relevant diamond and zinc-blende structure semiconductors. The energy relaxation times are expressed as a function of the carrier and lattice temperatures and, in the case of semiconductor alloys, the material composition. keywords: energy relaxation time, simulation, models, compounds, devices.

Analytical Analysis of The Dual-phase-lag Heat Transfer Equation in a Finite Slab with Periodic Surface Heat Flux (RESEARCH NOTE)
This work uses the dual-phase-lag (DPL) model of heat conduction to demonstrate the effect of temperature gradient relaxation time on the result of non-Fourier hyperbolic conduction in a finite slab subjected to a periodic thermal disturbance. DPL model combines the wave features of hyperbolic conduction with a diffusion-like feature of the evidence not captured by the hyperbolic case. For the ...
