Abstract

The transient behavior of semiconductor devices within the framework of density operators, the density matrix and the quantum hydrodynamic moment equations are reviewed. A capacitive-inductive transition, near 4 THz for two terminal double barrier structures within the framework of the quantum hydrodynamic equations is discussed.
