A simple technique that can be implemented in the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation of transport in a quantum well is reported. The main difference between the proposed technique and existing methods is the use of three dimension momentum (3Dk) particles in the simulation of a quantum region. The use of 3Dk particles within a quantum well structure facilitates the MC simulation of transport in nanoscale devices which contain both the classical and quantum regions.
