Conductivity and mobility
Thermal motion of the electron in the material.
On average, for a greater number of electrons, no net movement can be seen
With an electric field, we get a net movement of electrons
Drift velocity in electric field

Conductivity and mobility
px and t depends on the electrons scattering in the crystal lattice

Temperature and doping effects on mobility
Calculation of mobility
The probability increases for scattering when the thermal speed decreases for the charge carrier and the probability of scattering against ionized impurities (doping) increases
The mechanism that causes the lowest mobility dominates!
