The electron-phonon interaction in a two dimensional electron gas

At low temperatures the predominant energy loss mechanism for a Joule-heated two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) is by acoustic phonon emission. By very accurately measuring the temperature gradient developed along the silicon substrat...
