Abstract

An Ensemble Monte Carlo code for bulk Silicon is developed that takes into account the non-parabolic band model and analytical dispersion relationships for acoustic and optical phonons. The phonon scattering rates and probability distribution functions for polar angles after scattering are calculated using these analytical expressions and deployed into the Ensemble Monte Carlo (EMC) code. The simulation results of the Velocity-Field characteristics are in excellent agreement with the experimental data for [100] silicon at various temperatures.
