Model for Ultrafast Carrier Scattering in Semiconductors
Abstract
Overall objective of this research effort is to understand and explain ultrafast carrier scattering dynamics in semiconductor heterostructures. Specific research objectives are: To develop a screened semiconductor Bloch formalism to provide the force-balance equation with a friction force that determines electron drift velocity, and to establish screened semiconductor Bloch equations to study the dynamics of electron impurity, roughness, phonon, electron scattering, and dynamics of optical pumping.
