An ensemble Monte Carlo simulation has been carriedout to study electron transport properties in GaP, InP and Ga0.5In0.5P materials. The simulation results show that intervalley electron transfer plays a dominant role in higher electric fields leading to a strongly inverted electron distribution and to a large negative differential conductance. In addition, the electron velocity in GaP is less sensitive to temperature than other group III-V semiconductors like InP and Ga0.5In0.5P. So GaP devices are expected to be more tolerant to self-heating and high ambient temperature device modeling.Keywords
