Mobility as controlled by the transverse component of phonon wave vector in quantum layers at low temperatures

Without resorting to either the Kawaji's simplified model of interaction with only two-dimensional phonons or to the equipartition approximation for the phonon distribution, the characteristics of the momentum relaxation time of the conduction electrons in a quantized surface layer for interaction with intravalley acoustic phonons have been analysed under the condition of low temperature. The scattering and the mobility characteristics thus obtained for an n-channel (1 0 0)-oriented Si inversion layer are apparently quite different from what follows in the traditional framework.
