  • Abstract
    This letter derives an alternative formulation of the Einstein relation for degenerate semiconductors. From this formulation a graph is constructed displaying the dependence of the diffusivity-mobility ratio against carrier concentration valid for any temperature and for any material whose density of quantum states varies, to a reasonable approximation, as the square root of energy.
