  • Abstract
    We have performed a detailed analysis of the electron transport at high electric field in strained Si for different field directions and stress/strain conditions using Full-band Monte Carlo simulations. A phenomeno-logical model describing the velocity-field relationship for electrons in biaxially or uniaxially strained Si has been developed. The model is suitable for incorporation into any device simulator for performing TCAD tasks.
