Drift velocity of electrons in silicon at high electric fields from 4.2° to 300°K

The drift velocity of electrons in silicon at high electric fields is measured in the direction over the range of lattice temperatures from 4.2° to 300°K. It is established that in this range a limiting drift velocity exists. Its temperature dependence is measured. The samples used and the method of measurement are briefly described

Differential Step Response of Unipolar Space-Charge-Limited Current in Solids

The small signal step response of unipolar space‐charge‐limited current in solids is analyzed for planar structures and for media in which the drift velocity of the charge carriers is either proportional to the electric field (thermal charge carriers) or is independent of the electric field (hot charge carriers). Results are reported in analytical and graphical form. Their features are discussed in terms of the underlying physical phenomena, as well as in the perspective of experimental applications. Cylindrical and spherical structures are not accessible to closed‐form solutions by the approach

Left-right asymmetries and exotic vector-boson discovery in lepton-lepton colliders

By considering left-right (L-R) asymmetries we study the capabilities of lepton colliders in searching for new exotic vector bosons. Specifically we study the effect of a doubly charged bilepton boson and an extra neutral vector boson appearing in a 3-3-1 model on the L-R asymmetries for the processes $e^-e^-\to e^-e^-$, $\mu^-\mu^-\to\mu^-\mu^-$ and $e^-\mu^-\to e^-\mu^-$ and show that these asymmetries are very sensitive to these new contributions and that they are in fact powerful tools for discovery this sort of vector bosons.Comment: RevTeX, 22 pages, 12 eps figure

A supersymmetric 3-3-1 model

We build the complete supersymmetric version of a 3-3-1 gauge model using the superfield formalism. We point out that a discrete symmetry, similar to the R-symmetry in the minimal supersymmetric standard model, is possible to be defined in this model. Hence we have both R-conserving and R-violating possibilities. Analysis of the mass spectrum of the neutral real scalar fields shown that in this model the lightest scalar Higgs has a mass upper limit, and at the tree level it is 124.5 GeV for a given illustrative set of parameters.Comment: RevTex, extended and revised version, 20 pages, one eps figur

Supersymmetric 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos

We consider the supersymmetric extension of the 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos. We study the mass spectra in the scalar and pseudoscalar sectors, and for a given set of the input parameters, we find that the lightest scalar in the model has a mass of 130 GeV and the lightest pseudoscalar has mass of 5 GeV. However, this pseudoscalar decouples from the $Z^0$ at high energy scales since it is almost a singlet under $SU(2)_L\otimes U(1)_Y$.Comment: Revtex4, 16 pages, no figure
