The use of single-carrier semiconductor model in wave propagation problems

Conditions for neglecting the effects of hole motion in an intrinsic semiconductor subjected to a constant magnetic field are derived from the hydrodynamical equations for the charge carriers. Under the collision-dominated regime in semiconductor materials where the electron-hole mass ratio is very...

Zusammenfassung:Conditions for neglecting the effects of hole motion in an intrinsic semiconductor subjected to a constant magnetic field are derived from the hydrodynamical equations for the charge carriers. Under the collision-dominated regime in semiconductor materials where the electron-hole mass ratio is very small, the applied magnetic field and electron drift velocities values are shown to be limited to prescribed ranges in order that a single stream model be valid.
