Abstract
The deterministic solution of the coupled Boltzmann transport equations for electrons and holes is calculated by means of the spherical harmonics expansion method for avalanche breakdown of a pn-junction. An iteration scheme based on a splitting of the system matrix is presented, by which a stable solution of this numerically challenging problem can be obtained.
