This review volume is based primarily on the balance equation approach developed since 1984. It provides a simple and analytical description about hot electron
Under certain conditions electrons in a semiconductor become much hotter than the surrounding crystal lattice. When this happens, Ohm's Law breaks down: current
Discovery of new transport phenomena and invention of electron devices through exploitation of these phenomena have caused a great deal of interest in the prope
This research and reference text provides up-to-date coverage of the latest research on hot carriers in semiconductors, with a focus on the background, theoreti
