  • Abstract
    The electron mobility in the quaternary alloy In1¿xGaxAsyP1¿y has been measured at pressures up to 16 kbar which produce significant changes in the effective mass. Both the pressure dependence and the temperature dependence indicate that alloy scattering has a strong influence on the electron mobility.
