Miniband transport and oscillations in semiconductor superlattices
We present and analyse solutions of a recent derivation of a drift-diffusion model of miniband transport in strongly coupled superlattices. The model is obtained from a single-miniband Boltzmann–Poisson transport equation with a BGK (Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook) collision term by means of a consistent Chapman–Enskog expansion. The reduced drift-diffusion equation is solved numerically and travelling ...
متن کاملAnomalous Heat Conduction in Quasi-One-Dimensional Gases
From three-dimensional linearized hydrodynamic equations, it is found that the heat conductivity is proportional to (Lx/(L 2 yL 2 z)) , where Lx, Ly and Lz are the lengths of the system along the x, y and z directions, and we consider the case in which Lx ≫ Ly, Lz. The necessary condition for such a size dependence is derived as φ ≡ Lx/(n L 5/4 y L 5/4 z ) ≫ 1, where φ is the critical condition...
متن کاملAnomalous Heat Conduction in a Quasi One-Dimensional Gases
Fourier’s law is the relation between the heat flux J and the temperature gradient as J = −λ∇T where λ and T are the heat conductivity and the temperature, respectively. Although it is widely believed that the Fourier’s law is realized in many situations, recent numerical results suggest that the heat conductivity diverges in low-dimensional systems in the thermodynamic limit, while it is conve...
متن کاملSeebeck Enhancement Through Miniband Conduction in III–V Semiconductor Superlattices at Low Temperatures
We present theoretically that the cross-plane Seebeck coefficient of InGaAs/ InGaAlAs III–V semiconductor superlattices can be significantly enhanced through miniband transport at low temperatures. The miniband dispersion curves are calculated by self-consistently solving the Schrödinger equation with the periodic potential, and the Poisson equation taking into account the charge transfer betwe...
متن کاملWeak lasing in one-dimensional polariton superlattices.
Bosons with finite lifetime exhibit condensation and lasing when their influx exceeds the lasing threshold determined by the dissipative losses. In general, different one-particle states decay differently, and the bosons are usually assumed to condense in the state with the longest lifetime. Interaction between the bosons partially neglected by such an assumption can smear the lasing threshold ...
