Abstract
The effective longitudinal diffusion coefficient for two-band systems is determined. Emphasis is put on the nonlinear transport regime realized at high electric fields. Particular results are obtained for bipolar transport in two-band semiconductors and vertical transport in semiconductor superlattices. An additional contribution to the effective diffusion coefficient is identified, which results from different drift velocities in the respective bands (minibands).
