Abstract

We present a Monte Carlo procedure which, by including the mechanism of generation and recombination from impurity centers, enables us to calculate directly from the simulation the field dependent conductivity for the first time. The reliability of the theoretical model has been checked by comparing numerical results with experiments provided by the Montpellier group and performed on p-Si at different acceptor concentrations and temperatures.
