This paper reports on a Monte Carlo simulation of the hot electron transport phenomenon in an heterostructure semiconductor device. Two different electron populations have been simulated: the hot electrons injected via a tunneling mechanism into the base, and the thermal electrons arising from the high doping density of the ballistic device. Electron-electron scattering and plasmon-electron scattering have been introduced into the physical model which includes also electron degeneration and quantum reflections at the collector barrier. The simulation has been compared with the experimental results obtained from the THETA device at 4.2K.

A summary of a numerical study of the stability of modons to topographic perturbation is presented. Previous studies have suggested a monotonic relationship between the horizontal scale of the perturbation and the amplitude needed to destroy a modon—as the scale of the perturbation increases the strength needed for destruction decreases. The results presented here show that this relationship does not hold for scales larger than the modon radius. For large‐scale perturbations, the strength needed for destruction again increases. The modon is most stable to perturbations of horizontal scale either much larger or much smaller than the modon radius. Stability graphs are presented for three types of perturbations; ridges, hills, and irregular terrain.

Lyapunov stability arguments may be used to show that an otherwise unstable flow can be stabilized by restriction of the class of possible perturbations. It is shown that, in general, such a restriction applied only to the initial perturbation does not imply stability for dynamics on the entire phase space nor does it necessarily imply a delay of the onset of instability. As a result, proofs of linear stability based on a restriction of the initial perturbation actually are not valid. In particular, certain criteria for the stability of modons given by Pierini [Dyn. Atmos. Oceans 9, 273 (1985)] and Swaters [Phys. Fluids 29, 1419 (1986)] and synthesized by Flierl [Annu. Rev. Fluid Mech. 19, 493 (1987)] do not, in fact, ensure stability. A model is used to demonstrate that these stability criteria do not preclude instantaneous onset of linear instability. The model also demonstrates that, although conservation of energy and enstrophy implies that the transfer of energy in an instability must be to scales both larger and smaller than the modon scale, the principal direction of transfer remains undetermined.
OpenMP has become a successful programming model for developing multi-threaded applications. However, there are still some challenges in terms of OpenMP’s interoperability within itself and with other parallel progra...
