Abstract

Up to now, there have been numerous investigations about the effect of diffusion on the wave propagation in gaseous plasmas, but not so much in semiconductor magnetoplasmas. However, currently, it becomes the centor of interest to work with the latter problem, and this paper deals with the dispersion equation including diffusion effect in the latter case to see how diffusion affects the equation in which diffusion term is neglected in the first place, and the analysis is based on the assumption that the plasma can be treated as a hydrodynamical fluid, since, from a macroscopic view point, the plasma interacting with a magnetic field can be considered as a magneto-hydrodynamical fluid, an electrically conducting fluid subjected to electromagnetic force, and the system is linear. The results of the relation and computation show that in the non-streaming case the diffusion terms appear in the equation as perturbation terms and the amplitude of the wave vector changes parabolically with the variation of the angular frequency and the longitudinal modes are observed.
