Table 2.

Finger exercise for calculation of electron speeds within materials from data readily available in the public sphere

Material Electron mobility, μe (m2/V s) Applied electric field, E (V) Electron drift velocity, Vd (m/s)
Silicon 0.14 0 (0.14 × 0) = 0
Silicon 0.14 50 (0.14 × 50) = 7
Germanium 0.38 1000 (0.38 × 1000) = 380
