The Ohmic conduction, diffusion, and high-frequency noise in amorphous semiconductors are here investigated by means of a Monte Carlo implementation of a full threedimensional variable-range hopping transport model between localized states. Quantities like the carrier-velocity autocorrelation function, the noise power spectrum, the diffusion coefficient and the ohmic conductivity are obtained from numerical simulations at room and lower temperatures. Some interesting features of the linear-response regime typical of hopping transport are observed and discussed.

Abstract
The Ohmic conduction, diffusion, and high-frequency noise in amorphous semiconductors are here investigated by means of a Monte Carlo implementation of a full threedimensional variable-range hopping transport model between localized states. Quantities like the carrier-velocity autocorrelation function, the noise power spectrum, the diffusion coefficient and the ohmic conductivity are obtained from numerical simulations at room and lower temperatures. Some interesting features of the linear-response regime typical of hopping transport are observed and discussed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
