3 By completing the [[Resource(bulkmc)]] exercises and tests, users will be able to: a) understand the way the Boltzmann Transport Equation (BTE) is solved using the Monte Carlo method, b) the concept of drift velocity and average carrier energy, c) the reason why drift velocity saturates in, for example Si, and d) why do we observe the Gunn effect in, for example, GaAs material system.
