  • Abstract
    Velocity-field characteristics of short samples of n-type Ga0.47In0.53As are calculated for 300 K using a Monte Carlo model and recent values of physical constants. The average electron velocity reaches a peak value for a field of about 0.5/L (V . cm-1), L being the sample length in centimeters. The peak value increases to about 8.5 × 107cm . s-1for a sample length of 0.1 µm. The values are 1.3-1.6 times the values for GaAs.
