Electron transfer between three appropriately coupled sets of conduction-band valleys produces transport properties peculiarly favourable for transferred-electron devices. The necessary conditions should obtain in InP and in InP-InAs and InSb-GaSb alloys. Monte Carlo calculations of the velocity/field characteristics for these materials are described.
