Effective temperature of quasi- two-dimensional electrons in a strong electric field
The heating of electrons by a strong electric field directed along the plane of the free movement of electrons inside a quantum well with parabolic potential of confinement has been investigated. The case of strong degeneracy of the electron gas and the absence of phonon heating has been considered....

| Summary: | The heating of electrons by a strong electric field directed along the plane of the free
movement of electrons inside a quantum well with parabolic potential of confinement has been investigated. The case of strong degeneracy of the electron gas and the absence of phonon heating has been considered. It has been shown that the dependence of the electron temperature on the electric field is close to a quadratic dependence. |
