Generalized Kinetic Theory of Electrons and Phonons
A Generalized Kinetic Theory [1] was proposed in order to have the possibility to treat particles which obey a very general statistics. By adopting the same approach, we generalize here the Kinetic Theory of electrons and phonons. Equilibrium solutions and their stability are investigated. 1. Introduction Very recently [1], a Generalized Kinetic Theory (GKT) has been proposed by Rossani and Kan...
متن کاملFirst-principles dynamics of electrons and phonons
First-principles calculations combining density functional theory and many-body perturbation theory can provide microscopic insight into the dynamics of electrons and phonons in materials. We review this theoretical and computational framework, focusing on perturbative treatments of scattering, dynamics and transport of coupled electrons and phonons. We discuss application of these first-princi...
متن کاملKinetic Theory of the Alfvén Wave Acceleration of Auroral Electrons
Recent observations have indicated that in addition to the classical “inverted-V” type electron acceleration, auroral electrons often have a field-aligned distribution that is broad in energy and sometimes shows time dispersion indicating acceleration at various altitudes up the field line. Such acceleration is not consistent with a purely electrostatic potential drop, and suggests a wave heati...
متن کاملBond breaking at surfaces: Electrons or phonons?
The desorption of atoms and molecules is one of the most fundamental of all surface processes. A distinction is usually made between ‘‘thermal’’ desorption and desorption induced by energetic sources of excitation, such as incident photons or electrons, that induce electronic transitions. The paper by Trenhaile and co-workers in this issue shows the surprising result that the ‘‘thermal’’ desorp...
متن کاملNon equilibrium electrons and phonons in quantum-cascade lasers
The electron-phonon interaction is the dominant process that controls the energy relaxation of carriers, in semiconductors and related heterostructures. If the excess energy of the electron ensemble is sufficiently high, the process of electron cooling may generate significant nonequilibrium electron and optical-phonon populations which may cause substantial changes in the carrier relaxation ki...
