Quantum kinetic transport under high electric fields is investigated with emphasis on theintracollisional field effect (ICFE) in low-dimensional structures. It is shown that the ICFE inGaAs one-dimensional quantum wires is already significant under moderate electric fieldstrengths (≥ a few hundreds V/cm). This is a marked contrast to the cases in bulk, where theICFE is expected to be significant under extremely strong electric fields (≥ MV/cm). Employingthe Monte Carlo method including the ICFE, the electron drift velocity in quantum wiresis shown to be much smaller than that expected from earlier investigations
