Band-Structure Dependent Impact Ionization in Silicon and Gallium Arsenide
Abstract
We have performed a Monte Carlo simulation for GaAs and Si with the realistic band structure included. Steady state impact ionization rates and drift velocities under high electric fields (> 100 kV/cm) were calculated at various temperatures.
