BROADENING IN THE MASTER EQUATION

Abstract

Broadening has been introduced into the collision term of the master equation. Instead of the delta function condition on the energy of the initial and final states, we have a Lorentzian condition in the collision term. This implies scattering occurs from a state of energy E to states in a region from (E-gamma) to (E+gamma). The broadening term is evaluated for the electron-phonon interaction. (Author)
