Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Balance equations for high-field electron transport in nonparabolic multiband (multivalley) semiconductors are proposed based on the Heisenberg equations of motion for the total physical momentum, the total energy and the population of carriers in each energy band (each valley), and the statistical average with respect to an initial density matrix having a lattice wave-vector shift, an electron temperature, and a chemical potential for each energy band (each valley) as parameters. As an example, these equations are applied to the discussion of hot-electron transport in bulk Si, assuming Kane-type energy dispersion for six elliptical valleys. The theoretical results are in good agreement with experiments and with Monte Carlo simulations, over the entire range of the electric field up to 140 kV/cm. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.
