  • Abstract
    Low and high field transport of holes in strained SiGe on insulator inversion layers is studied by solving BTE with a new accurate and efficient non-stochastic method for the first time. Alloy scattering is found to have a strong impact on hole transport. Strain enhances both the low-field mobility and the high-field drift velocity.
