Abstract
The drift velocity of electrons and holes in silicon has been measured in a large range of the electric fields (from 3 . 102to 6 . 104V/cm) at temperatures up to 430 K. The experimental data have been fitted with a simple formula for the temperatures of interest. The mean square deviation was in all cases less than 3.8 percent. A more general formula has also been derived which allows to obtain by extrapolation drift velocity data at any temperature and electric field.
