Abstract

Two finite-difference methods for solving the energy-momentum transport equations for electrons in two-valley semiconductors are analyzed. For each method, stability analyses are carried out including the electric field terms and relaxation terms in the equations. Results of large-signal simulations of GaAs IMPATTs using these numerical methods are presented and compared.
