Abstract
Simple analytical approximation has been obtained to describe the temperature and concentration dependencies of the low-field mobility in gallium nitride (GaN) in wide temperature (50⩽ T ⩽1000 K) and concentration (10 14 ⩽ N ⩽10 19 cm −3 ) ranges. The dependence of the temperature T m at which the mobility μ is at a maximum on the doping level is also obtained. Results obtained can be directly used for computer simulation of GaN-based devices.
