  • Abstract
    We present a theoretical and computational analysis of the anisotropy properties of the hot-carrier thermal conductivity in semiconductors as a function of the electric-field strength and direction, suitable to be used in the hydrodynamic model. Numerical results have been obtained for electrons in silicon at 77 K and 300 K through the use of a Monte Carlo simulator which includes an appropriate physical model for the field range considered.
