A Monte Carlo investigation of the effect of multiband electron-hole scattering on steady-state minority-electron transport in room-temperature p-GaAs is reported. A comparative study of the strength of such scattering mechanisms is presented and shows that a careful treatment of these processes is indispensible for a quantitative microscopic understanding of minority-electron behavior. The effect of the p-type symmetry of hole wave functions on multiband processes and minority-electron transport is also described. Finally, we discuss several additional issues, which we believe must be carefully investigated before present Monte Carlo treatments of electron-hole scattering can provide reliable quantitative information.
