This thesis uses Monte Carlo simulations to investigate electron transport in GaAs, its ternary In0.₅₃Ga₀.₄₇As and GaN. Ensemble Monte Carlo methods are used to determine the effects of a non-equilibrium phonon distribution on the transport propertie...

Dispersion and the electron-phonon interaction in a single heterostructure (2016)
Journal Article
Naylor, D. R., Dyson, A., & Ridley, B. K. (2017). Dispersion and the electron-phonon interaction in a single heterostructure. Physica E: Low-dimensional Systems and Nanostructures, 86, 218-224. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physe.2016.06.027

We investigate the electron-phonon interaction in a polar-polar single heterostructure through the use of the linear combination of hybrid phonon modes, considering the role of longitudinal optical, transverse optical and interface modes, using a con...

Phonon emission and arrival times of electrons from a single-electron source (2016)
Journal Article
Emary, C., Dyson, A., Ryu, S., Sim, H.-S., & Kataoka, M. (2016). Phonon emission and arrival times of electrons from a single-electron source. Physical Review B, 93(3), Article ARTN 035436. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.93.035436

In recent charge-pump experiments, single electrons are injected into quantum Hall edge channels at energies significantly above the Fermi level. We consider here the relaxation of these hot edge-channel electrons through longitudinal-optical-phonon... Read More about Phonon emission and arrival times of electrons from a single-electron source.
