← ScienceWhich mechanism determines electron mobility in gallium arsenide?
A)Band structure effective mass✓
B)Phonon scattering rate decrease
C)Dopant impurity ion neutralization
D)Auger recombination rate decline
💡 Explanation
The band structure directly influences electron mobility because electrons experience varying effective masses depending on the energy band's curvature; therefore lower electron effective mass increases mobility, rather than phonon scattering which inhibits or dopant neutralization which is unrelated.
