Abstract

A general approach to study of energy interaction between hot electrons and phonons is presented. Basing on kinetic equations for both subsystems of these quasiparticles we suggest the most convenient models for the theoretical investigation of hot electrons as well as of hot phonons. All of these models are based on possibility of obtaining the symmetric part of nonequilibrium distribution function in the form of the Dirac function (for electrons) or the Planck function (for phonons) with own nonequilibrium local temperatures. General equations are obtained for these temperatures.
