Description
We present an implementation of charge transport physics in cryogenically cold semiconductor crystals using the Geant4 toolkit. The code presented is capable of simulating the transport of electrons and holes within Germanium crystals, taking into account conduction band anisotropies and Luke-Neganov scattering.
We discuss the detailed implementation of charge transport physics presented, along with our validation efforts and physics applications, such as line broadening in cryogenic calorimeters. Coherent crystal interactions such as channeling and extensions of the framework to room temperature will also be discussed.
