Charge carrier mobility

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-001895

A measure of how quickly charge carriers, such as electrons or holes, move through a polymeric material under the influence of an electric field. It quantifies the ease with which charge can be transported within the polymer. This property is expressed in units of cm^2/(V·s).
