An Analytical Band Monte Carlo model was used to investigate the temperature dependence of impact ionization in InAs. The model produced an excellent agreement with experimental data for both avalanche gain and excess noise factors at all temperatures modeled. The gain exhibits a positive temperature dependence whilst the excess noise shows a very weak negative dependence. These dependencies we...

Chemical hardness (), absolute electronegativity (), and electrophilicity () have importantapplications in inorganic chemistry. These concepts are defined quantitatively as � � �� � ����,� � �� � ����, � � ������Where I is the ionization energy and A is the electron affinity. In thisstudy, graphical method was used to see the relation of electron configuration with chemicalhardness, absolute el...

The kinetic Boltzmann equation is used to model the non-equilibrium ionization phase that initiates the evolution of atomic clusters irradiated with single pulses of intense vacuum ultraviolet radiation. The duration of the pulses is ≤ 50 fs and their intensity in the focus is ≤ 10 14 W/cm 2. This statistical model includes various processes contributing to the sample dynamics at this particula...

Time-delays in the photoionization of molecules are investigated. As compared to atomic ionization, the time-delays expected from molecular ionization present a much richer phenomenon, with a strong spatial dependence due to the anisotropic nature of the molecular scattering potential. We investigate this from a scattering theory perspective, and make use of molecular photoionization calculatio...

Impact ionization in fully depleted (FD) Silicon On Insulator (SOI) n-Channel MOSFET is investigated as a function of the doping concentration. We have found that impact ionization increases with the decrease in the doping concentration and vice versa. Simulation results obtained from Sentaurus TCAD with the higher doping concentration can control the threshold voltage (Vth). Furthermore we hav...

In this study, the substituent effect on the electronic, spectroscopic properties and thermodynamic parameters of neutral and oxidized states of ferrocylidene acetophenone complexes was investigated by adopting the hybrid meta exchange-correlation functional of M06-2X. The frontier orbitals and the highest occupied molecular orbitals–lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals gaps of the substituted ...

In this paper we describe the formation of fingers from ionization fronts for a hydrodynamic plasma model. The fingers result from a balance between the destabilizing effect of impact ionization and the stabilizing effect of electron diffusion on ionization fronts. We show that electron diffusion acts as an effective surface tension on moving fronts and estimate analytically the size of the fin...

The anisotropic hole and electron mobilities in N,N'-3,4,9,10-perylenediimide-1,7-phenoxy (PDIB-2OPh) and N,N'-3,4,9,10-perylenediimide (PDIB) were theoretically predicted using the Marcus-Hush theory. The substituent effect of phenoxy on their mobility rates, absorption spectra, electron affinities, and ionization potentials was explored. By comparing the simulated hole mobility in PDIB and PD...

Ionization potential (ionization energy) is a fundamental quantity characterizing electronic structure of a molecule. It is known that the energy in solution phase is significantly different from that in the gas phase. In this report, vertical and adiabatic ionization processes in aqueous solution are studied based on a hybrid method of quantum chemistry and statistical mechanics called referen...

Monte Carlo simulations were used to investigate the conformational and electrical properties of isolated weak polyelectrolytes in the presence of an oppositely charged particle. Titrations curves were calculated to get an insight into the role of pH on the degree of ionization and conformation of isolated chains. The effect of ionic concentration and polyelectrolyte length on the titration cur...
