Abstract

We present a general phase-space kinetic model for charged-particle transport through combined localized and delocalized states, capable of describing scattering collisions, trapping, detrapping, and losses. The model is described by a generalized Boltzmann equation, for which an analytical solution is found in Fourier-Laplace space. The velocity of the center of mass and the diffusivity about it are determined analytically, together with the flux transport coefficients. Transient negative values of the free particle center-of-mass transport coefficients can be observed due to the trapping to, and detrapping from, localized states. A Chapman-Enskog-type perturbative solution technique is applied, confirming the analytical results and highlighting the emergence of a density gradient representation in the weak-gradient hydrodynamic regime. A generalized diffusion equation with a unique global time operator is shown to arise, reducing to the standard diffusion equation and a Caputo fractional diffusion equation in the normal and dispersive limits. A subordination transformation is used to solve the generalized diffusion equation by mapping from the solution of a corresponding standard diffusion equation.
