Energy relaxation of nonequilibrium electrons in a nanotube formed by a rolled-up quantum well

  • 1. National Academy of Sciences of Azerbaijan, Institute of Physics (Azerbaijan)

Description

The energy relaxation processes of excess electrons on the surface of a semiconductor nanotube are studied. A general analytical expression for the relaxation time of the energy of nonequilibrium electrons is derived taking into account possible intersubband transitions at an arbitrary ratio of nanotube and polaron radii r0/rp. Numerical calculations for GaAs semiconductor nanotube are performed.
