Article Synopsis
- The study uses first-principles calculations to explore the electronic properties, vibrational spectra, and electron mobility of β-GaO, a semiconductor material.
- The researchers calculate the electron-phonon scattering rate by applying a specialized model that considers the unique structure of β-GaO and examine the influence of ionized impurities like donor and acceptor defects on mobility.
- The findings indicate that at lower carrier densities, electron-phonon interactions predominantly affect mobility, while higher densities lead to increased compensation effects that reduce mobility, suggesting that observed high anisotropy in experiments likely stems from factors beyond the intrinsic properties of β-GaO.
