Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立高雄大學 === 應用數學系碩士班 === 97 === The quantum-corrected energy transport (QCET) model consisting of seven self-adjoint nonlinear PDEs describes the steady state of electron and hole flows, their energy transport, and classical and quantum potentials within a nano-scale semiconductor device. We extend the energy relaxation term of QCET model to include the non-parabolic band structure for electron. We get explicit expressions of energy relaxation term involving the non-parabolic band effects and depending on the electron temperature. It shows that the non-parabolic effects are very significant for hot-electron nanodevices.
