In Lectures 1-5, scattering is described by a mean-free-path (mfp) for
backscattering. In this lecture, we show how the mfp is related to the
time between scattering events and briefly discuss how the scattering
time is related to underlying physical processes.
Outline:
- Introduction
- Physics of carrier scattering
- Transmission and MFP
- MFP and scattering
- Discussion
