Abstract

Monte Carlo simulations of different nitrides such as InN,GaN, and AIN, were analyzed to study the high-frequency generation associated with the optical-phonon transit-time resonance in a constant electric field. The characteristics of the power amplification and generation showed that the gain decreased while the generated power increased on going from InN to GaN to AIN.
