In our paper [1], an Analytical Band Monte Carlo Model (ABMC) was used to investigate the temperature dependence of impact ionization in InAs. In Fig. 5 of the paper we plotted the electric field dependence of the electron ionization coefficient, we have recently discovered an error in this figure as the vertical and horizontal axis should be in units of m⁻¹ and m/V respectively and not cm⁻¹ and cm/V as shown. The corrected figure is shown below (Fig. 1 ). The relevant discussion of this result in the paper [1] is still valid, with the quoted figures and previous referenced results agreeing with the corrected figure.
