Title :
Scattering of the holes in isotropic polycrystalline silicon and the calculation of effective masses of the charge carriers
Abstract :
The Hamiltonian formulation for the process of the scattering of holes on the crystallite misorientations in isotropic polycrystalline silicon is described. This approach allows for the description of different scattering transitions: light holes to light holes, heavy holes to heavy holes, light holes to heavy holes, and heavy holes to light holes. The estimation of mass spectrum of holes and the calculation of the scattering probability of the holes on the crystallite misorientations in isotropic polycrystalline silicon are performed.
