Anisotropic Carrier Transport in n-Doped 6H-SiC

Materials Science 2021-10-05 v1

Abstract

In this paper, a study is presented on the charge transport in n-type doped semiconductor 6H-SiC (in both transient and steady state) using a nonequilibrium quantum kinetic theory derived from the method of nonequilibrium statistical operator (NSO), which furnishes a clear description of the irreversible phenomena that occur in the evolution of the analyzed system. We obtain theoretically the dependence on the electric field (applied in the orientation perpendicular or parallel to the c-axis) of the basic macrovariables: the electron drift velocity and the nonequilibrium temperature. The peak points in time evolution of this macrovariables are derived and analyzed.
