In the linear response regime close to equilibrium, the fluctuation-dissipation theorem
relates linear transport coefficients via the well-known Green–Kubo or Einstein relation. The …

A thorough reference work bridging the gap between contemporary and traditional
approaches to noise problems Noise in semiconductor devices refers to any unwanted …

A brief review of the semiclassical Monte Carlo (MC) method for semiconductor device
simulation is given, covering the standard MC algorithms, variance reduction techniques, the …

The ab initio theory of low-field electronic transport properties such as carrier mobility in
semiconductors is well-established. However, an equivalent treatment of electronic …

The parameter-free computation of charge transport properties of semiconductors is now
routine owing to advances in the ab initio description of the electron-phonon interaction …

Computational modeling is an important subject of microelectronics, which is the only

Langevin-type two-dimensional (2-D) bipolar drift-diffusion (DD) and hydrodynamic (HD)
noise models are presented for Si and SiGe devices, which are based on the new concept of …

The maximum entropy principle is applied to a conducting band with energy wave vector
dispersion of general form and to an arbitrary number of generalized kinetic fields. By …

This review presents the state of the art of the maximum entropy principle (MEP) in its
classical and quantum (QMEP) formulation. Within the classical MEP we overview a general …

A hydrodynamic (HD) transport approach based on a closed system of balance equations is
developed from the maximum entropy principle. By considering a nonlinear expansion with …
