Abstract

Experimental data of drift mobilities of minority carriers in germanium are brought into agreement with theoretical predictions by distinguishing between group velocity and particle velocity of a pulse of minority carriers. Corrected high temperature measurements of electron drift mobility are consistent with the theoretical prediction $μ = A T^{- \frac{3}{2}}$ . The experimentally determined value of $A$ is $2.0 \times 10^{7} {cm}^{2} \deg^{\frac{3}{2}} / v o l t - s e c$ .
