Question:

The mobility of charge carriers increases with

Options:

Increase in average collision time interval

Increase in the electric field

Increase in the mass of the charge carriers

Decrease in the charge of the mobile carriers

Correct Answer:

Increase in average collision time interval

Explanation:

We know,

Mobility µ = \(\frac{v_d}{E}=\frac{\left(\frac{e E}{2m}\right) \tau}{E}\)

∴ µ = \(\left(\frac{e}{m}\right) \tau \)

The mobility of charge carriers depends on average relaxation (collision) time.
