  • Abstract
    The in-plane velocity-field characteristics of InAs self-assembled quantum dots are measured experimentally and modelled theoretically with Monte Carlo simulation. An unusual result is observed in that the mobility increases at higher electric fields. This is because the more energetic electrons are less likely to be trapped by the quantum dots, resulting in a higher electron mobility
