Abstract
High-energy hole scattering rates for a full band Monte Carlo simulation in Si are verified using the quantum yield experiment. We compare two models that yield the correct velocity-field and ionization coefficient characteristics but quite different energy distributions. It is demonstrated that the quantum yield experiment is available as a new monitor of hole scattering rates in Si: the model based on ab initio impact ionization rate shows good agreement with the experiments.
