The Onsager reciprocity principle as a check of consistency for semiconductor carrier transport models

During these years several hydrodynamic-like models for simulating carrier transport in semiconductors have been developed. In this paper we check the consistency of these models with the Onsager Reciprocity Principle, which is one of the fundamental principles of Linear Irreversible Thermodynamics. Monte Carlo simulations for silicon in the inhomogeneous case are shown.
