Abstract
Electron and hole ionisation coefficients from 200 to 500 K have been calculated using the lucky drift model of impact ionisation calibrated to measurements made at 300 K. The results are fitted to two- and three-parameter empirical relationships for the ionisation coefficient against field, which can be used in device modelling.
