conductivity correct answers A material parameter related to carrier drift; quantitatively, the ratio
of drift current density to electric field
diffusion correct answers the process whereby particles flow from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration
diffusion coefficient correct answers The parameter relating particle flux to the particle density gradient
diffusion current correct answers The current that results from the drift of charged particles
drift correct answers The process whereby charged particles move while under the influence of an electric field
drift current correct answers The current that results from the drift of charges particles
drift velocity correct answers The average velocity of charged particles in the presence of an electric field
Einstein relation correct answers The relation between the mobility and the diffusion coefficient
Hall voltage correct answers The voltage induced across a semiconductor in a Hall effect measurement
ionized impurity scattering correct answers The interaction between a charged carrier and an ionized impurity center
lattice scattering correct answers The interaction between a charged carrier and a thermally vibrating lattice atom
mobility correct answers the parameter relating carrier drift velocity and electric field
resistivity correct answers the reciprocal of conductivity; a material parameter that is a measure of the resistance to current
velocity saturation correct answers the saturation of carrier drift velocity with increasing electric field
What are the units for mobility? correct answers (cm^2)/(V-s)
What is electron mobility? correct answers The electron mobility (un) is a characterization of how quickly an electron can move through a semiconductor due to an electric field
