It is demonstrated that, in addition to the well-known quasineutral modes of carrier transport, i.e., those of quasineutral diffusion and quasineutral drift, a quasineutral mode of diffusion stimulated by quasineutral drift (DSQD) is possible. An equation that describes this mode is derived and the principal specific features of the mode are examined analytically. In particular, an analytical expression for the current-voltage (I-V) characteristic is obtained for the case when just DSQD governs the carrier transport. The analytical results obtained are verified and confirmed by a detailed simulation.
Simple analytical approximations are proposed for describing the temperature and concentration dependences of low-field mobility in the main polytypes of silicon carbide (SiC): 6H, 4H and 3C in wide ranges of temperature and concentration. The obtained results can be directly used for the computer simulation of SiC-based devices. Different approaches to the analytical approximation of SiC parameters are critically correlated and analysed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
