  • Abstract
    By accounting for phonons absorbed and emitted by the charge carriers as they are being scattered by the lattice, it has been possible to map the locations of heat development in an n-type GaAs field-effect transistor. The pattern of heat development differs somewhat from the predictions of simple theory (JE), and, in some areas, heat is removed by the carriers.
