Abstract
A double-temperature model of inter-valley electron transfer (IET) is used to study the avalanche effect in graded band gap Alx(z)Ga1-x(z)As diodes with IET. It is demonstrated that the graded band gap crystals enable decrease voltage of avalanche effect in static domain. This effect is useful in noise diodes with static domain and IMPATT diodes.
