N2 - It is shown that in a current carrying extrinsic semiconductor, a quasi-neutral wave of carrier concentrations evolves into a shock wave(s). Inhomogeneous distribution of impurities causes either amplification (an absolute instability) or depression of these waves.
AB - It is shown that in a current carrying extrinsic semiconductor, a quasi-neutral wave of carrier concentrations evolves into a shock wave(s). Inhomogeneous distribution of impurities causes either amplification (an absolute instability) or depression of these waves.
