摘要
An accurate description of the carrier transport in modern bipolar semiconductor devices requires the consideration of carrier-carrier interactions. A semicontinuous version of the Boltzmann equations governing the temporal evolution Of a coupled system of electrons, holes, and phonons is presented. The accuracy of the developed numerical method is investigated by simulating the relaxation of carriers in bulk GaAs.
