Hole Mobilities in the Silicon Semiconductor: the Case of Warped Band

Salvatore La Rosa, Vittorio Romano

Abstract


The maximum entropy principle is used to get a consistent hydrodynamical model for the transport of holes in semiconductors and then from this an asymptotic energy-transport and drift-diffusion models are derived. The valence bands are described with warped functions. An explicit formula for the low field mobility is deduced.
