This study examined a two-dimensional deformation due to photo-thermo-hydro-mechanical issues
related to the poroelastic semiconductor material in a generalized photo-thermoelasticity theory that includes
microtemperature effects and varying material properties. A new theoretical model is proposed that integrates
photo-thermo-hydro-mechanical interactions under the framework of generalized thermoelasticity. Unlike the
previous studies, this work explicitly includes microtemperature-dependent heat flux and porosity-driven fluid
interactions, which are critical for accurately modeling energy transport in semiconductor materials. The
foundation material was envisioned as a uniform, completely saturated, poroelastic semiconductor medium,
and a mechanical force was applied at the free surface of the thermoelastic half-space. The novelty of this
work lies in formulating a new coupled dynamic model that integrates photothermal, hydraulic, and mechanical
stresses with microtemperature interactions in a poroelastic semiconductor medium. Initially, we employed the
normal modes technique to find the exact solution of the non-dimensional coupled equations. Subsequently,
we examined the impact of temperature distribution, carrier density, excess pore water pressure, displacement,
microtemperature, mechanical normal and shear stresses, and heat flux moment tensor for photo-thermo-hydromechanical dynamic models with microtemperatures. The findings offer valuable insights for applications
in geophysics, nuclear waste management, and biomedical engineering, where multi-physics interfaces are
significant, and the computed results are presented graphically for deeper interpretation.
