Abstract :
An approach for analysis of the small signal response of the carriers in semiconductors is presented. The response to an impulse signal is explained in terms of a relaxation process, governed by a Boltzmann equation. The approach assists the understanding of the phenomenon and allows development of novel stochastic algorithms
