Abstract
A new two-dimensional device simulator to analyze hot carrier photon emission has been developed. A new calculation algorithm of coupled Monte Carlo energy relaxation analysis is employed to obtain the carrier temperature distribution and the carrier energy distribution function at a fast computation turn around time. The relation between the hot carrier energy and the photon emission characteristics is easily obtained by using this simulator. The simulated results show excellent agreement with the experimental results. It is found from the comparison between the simulated and experimental results that the hot carrier energy distribution function is not described by the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution.
