  • Abstract
    The physical origins of both Coulomb scattering and surface roughness scattering were investigated experimentally. It was demonstrated that the screening effect of Coulomb scattering is significantly different between interface charges and substrate impurities. It was also observed for the first time that there is a weak E/sub eff/ dependence of /spl mu//sub sr/ in MOSFETs with a long roughness correlation length comparable to the electron wavelength.<>
