A hydrodynamic model describing the electron transport in silicon carbide semiconductors, coupled with the heating of the crystal lattice, is presented. It has been obtained by taking the moments of the coupled Boltzmann equations for the electrons and phonons, and by using the maximum entropy principle, where the transport coefficients are explicitly determined. Simulation results in the bulk case are shown.

Abstract
A hydrodynamic model describing the electron transport in silicon carbide semiconductors, coupled with the heating of the crystal lattice, is presented. It has been obtained by taking the moments of the coupled Boltzmann equations for the electrons and phonons, and by using the maximum entropy principle, where the transport coefficients are explicitly determined. Simulation results in the bulk case are shown.File in questo prodotto:
