Abstract
An improved method for modelling degeneracy in a Monte-Carlo simulation of electron transport in GaAs is proposed. It has been shown that the displacement of the distribution of electrons in k-space should be taken into account, when the degeneracy effects are implemented by using the energies of electrons.
