Abstract

Dynamic behavior of electrons in GaAs under impact ionization conditions is studied by the Monte Carlo technique. The relaxation time of impact ionization generation rate is estimated. The linear stage of instability caused by the generation rate lagging the electric field is investigated. The nonlinear regime of this instability is numerically simulated. The electric field and plasma density oscillations with a frequency of the order of 50–1000 GHz are obtained.
