The new epitaxial technologies of molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and              metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) have added astonishing           possibilities to the fabrication of sophisticated semiconductor                 structures like GaAs-A1As superlattices and heterostructure layers.             Progress in fine line lithography makes one-dimensional (1-D)                   structures feasible in the near future.  The potential of these new             synthetic materials for device applications are considerable.  In this          research effort, transport properties will be studied and the possible          applications of 1-D semiconductor systems to high performance devices           will be explored.  The work is theoretical.  The approach includes a            theory of the dielectric function of quasi-1-D systems and the                  derivation of the collective modes of a 1-D electron gas.  The                  transport theory is based on the semi-classical Boltzmann equation and          special emphasis is given to the electron-polar optical phonon                  interaction and to inter-carrier scattering.  The 1-D electron                  distribution function for low and high field transport will be                  obtained.  The guideline of this investigation will be the analogy of           1-D structures with magnetotransport.  For complex transport processes,         simulation methods (Monte Carlo) will be developed.
