The authors consider an approximation to the semiconductor Boltzmann equation with a distribution function associated with a set of particles. Estimates of the errors associated with the solution are given, and the problems of multiband and multivalued materials are considered. The authors suggest that the particle method considered in the paper is, from the point of view of stability in time, superior to finite difference methods.
