  • Abstract
    The voltage distribution in GaAs has been measured by probing the potential along the surface of a lightly doped bulk-GaAs wafer. Using this distribution, the field dependence of the electron velocity was calculated. The mobility was found to be negative for electric fields between 3900 V/cm and approximately 7000 V/cm.
