Enter the drift velocity (m/s) and the external energy provided by the electric field (J) into the Electron Mobility Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Electron Mobility.
Electron Mobility Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate Electron Mobility.
u = Vd /E
Variables:
- u is the Electron Mobility (m^2/(V-s))
- Vd is the drift velocity (m/s)
- E is the external energy provided by the electric field (J)
To calculate the electron mobility, divide the drift velocity by the external energy provided by the electric field.
How to Calculate Electron Mobility?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Electron Mobility.
- First, determine the drift velocity (m/s).
- Next, determine the external energy provided by the electric field (J).
- Next, gather the formula from above = u = Vd /E.
- Finally, calculate the Electron Mobility.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
drift velocity (m/s) = 300
external energy provided by the electric field (J) = 235
u = Vd /E = ?
