Resistance networks as a model for conduction on the nano-scale
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-05-13)In this thesis, we calculate transport properties of amorphous materials in one, two, and three dimensions. We take into account site disorder, manifest as a random variation of the locations of atomic species. We employ ... -
Transport Characteristics of Amorphous Semiconductors in the Dilute Carrier Regime: A Variable Range Hopping Treatment
(University of Missouri--Kansas City., 2011-01-20)We survey the analytical methods which are used to find the conductivity of amorphous solids as a function of temperature, specifically the work done by N. F. Mott and Apsley et al. and we point out the problems with ...
