Abstract

Interaction of electrons or holes in narrow energy bands with both acoustic and polar phonons is investigated. Based upon a graphical expansion of the electron Green's function and of the transport vertex function, a Boltzmann equation is derived, which includes one-phonon and simultaneous two-phonon scattering. The general results are applied to a one-dimensional model of a narrow-band system.
