Transport properties of charge carriers

The fabrication of active semiconductor devices from amorphous semiconductor films is a further application that offers considerable advantages. Thin-fihn transistors, based on amorphous films of hydrogenated silicon, are nnder intensive development. Other devices with monostable and bistable switching characteristics have also received considerable interest. Naturally enough, the performance of snch devices is intimately related to the transport properties of charge carriers in the materials employed.
