Abstract
This paper is devoted to the numerical study, using the deterministic particle method, of the parallel transport of a bidimensional electron gas confined in a potential well near a heterojunction interface. The geometry makes it possible to solve independently the transport under the electric field and the well shape. We simulate the electronic transport with a kinetic model and use the deterministic particle method. As for the description of the potential well, we use different models and compare their influence on the thermodynamic equilibrium and on the transport properties of the electron gas.
