Abstract
The method employed by Chandrasekhar for the astronomical bodies is brought down here to study the diffusion in Silicon. A continuous position probability density for the diffusing particle, ω(r, t) representing the position of the diffusing particle at any time t, is used in the evaluation of the diffusion constant. The results agree reasonably well with the available experimental and theoretically reported values. The existence of "traps" in the semiconducting systems has been clearly brought out by this simulation technique.
