Abstract
A theoretical study on the ultrafast high-field transport transient
properties of electrons in 3C-SiC is performed within a parabolic and a
nonparabolic band scheme. In both cases, the transient regime before the
electron energy and drift velocity attain their steady-state is shown to
be shorter than 0.2 ps. When the applied electric field intensity is
higher than 300 kV/cm, an overshoot always occurs in the electron drift
velocity, which is more pronounced when band nonparabolicity is
considered. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
