Abstract

The thermodynamic and electronic parameters: concentration, chemical potential, heat-capacity and thermal electromotive force (thermal e.m.f.) of hot two-dimensional electron gas in a heterocontact were calculated using a specific distribution function. The obtained expressions describe the dependence of heat-capacity and thermal electromotive force on a film thickness and an electron temperature in a good manner. It was determined that the acquired results calculated for the model under consideration, strongly differed from the results calculated on the base of a Maxwell distribution function.
