Abstract
The heating of electrons under longitudinal optical phonon scattering in a triangular GaN/AlGaN quantum well was studied theoretically. The energy loss rate of electrons was calculated in consideration of the dynamical screening and the hot phonon effect. The dependence of the electron temperature on the longitudinal electric field was calculated. The integral terahertz emission of hot two-dimensional electrons was simulated. The role of coupled plasmon-phonon mode scattering in the GaN/AlGaN quantum well was discussed.
