Description

The mobility of charge carriers μ in a parabolic quantum well in an electric field E directed along the size-confinement axis is calculated. With consideration for scattering of charge carriers at a rough surface, the mobility μ is shown to decrease with increasing E. A physical interpretation of this effect is proposed.
