“…Such approximation procedures are based on the observation that when the modification of the periodic potential of the ions in a real material is sufficiently smooth at the macroscopic scale, the particles in the lattice 'see' a microscopic potential that, in the first approximation, can be considered as periodic. In this way, the effects of the microscopic imperfections are taken into account in the particle evolution equation only at the macroscopic level by inserting a gentle variation of the coefficients that characterize the material [3,14,21].…”

“…One way to tackle this problem is by means of the maximum entropy principle (hereafter MEP) of extended thermodynamics (Müller and Ruggeri, 1998; Jou et al , 2001), which has been extensively used to obtain closure equations in the case in which the lattice is a thermal bath with constant temperature (Anile and Muscato, 1995; Muscato and Romano, 2001; Muscato, 2004, 2006).…”

“…13,14 During the last ten years, closure equations have been used for simulating sub-micrometric devices in the case in which the lattice is a thermal bath with constant temperature. [15][16][17][18] The aim of this paper is to extend the MEP transport model by considering the nonequilibrium nature of hot electrons and optical and acoustic phonons. In Sec.…”
