摘要
The Boltzmann equation for charge transport in monolayer graphene is numerically solved by using a discontinuous Galerkin method. The numerical fluxes are based on a uniform non oscillatory reconstruction. The numerical scheme has been tested by simulating the electron dynamics in a graphene field effect transistor. To the best of our knowledge the presented simulations are the first ones using a full Boltzmann equation in graphene devices.
