Abstract
The ionisation coefficients in semiconductors are calculated by using Monte-Carlo method on the basis of the following assumptions:
- isotropic effective masses of carriers,
- isotropic scattering,
- constant mean free path.
The results obtained differ slightly from the existing theoretical calculations. The agreement with experimental results is good. The method is also aplicable to the case of anisotropic effective masses.
