چکیده
|
Monte carlo simulation of electron transport in an inas and inp diode of n+-i-n+ structure is compared with gaas diode. all of these calculations are performed for the lattice temperature t=300 k. we approximate the conduction band of gaas by taking into account the γ valley in the center of the first brillouin zone,four equivalent l valleys and three equivalent x valleys. the anode voltage ranges from 0,75v,1,5v and 2 v. the distributions of electron energies,electron velocities,potential and the profiles of the electric field are computed. for higher anode voltages and longer active regions,inter-valley scattering as well as back scattering effects control the electron transport behaviour at the anode side of the active region. also,the effects of the lattice temperature and doping on the length of the active layer are discussed. our calculations show that electron reach to a higher drift velocity in the inas than inp and gaas. so inas material is a good candidate for high power device fabrication.
