The experimental data sets Data.1 4 are mobility values taken from references [1],[2],[3],[4] 1. Simulation results are generally higher than the experimental data probably due to lack of consideration of other possible scattering types 2. The simulation results agree with the general trend laid by the experimental data. [1] M. Asif Khan et al, Appl. Phys. Lett.,1995 [2] H. Tang et al, Appl. Phys. Lett.,1999 [3] J. M.

15 Conclusion 1. GaN band structure calculation gives good agreement with experimental data and/or first principle calculations. 2. GaN bulk Monte Carlo Simulation gives agreeable results comparing to experimental data with a positive offset indicating needs to include more scattering mechanisms 3. 2D Electron Gas Monte Carlo simulation gives results within the range of the experimental data collections 4. Bulk GaN Mobility ranges from 500 to 750 cccc 2 /VVVV in our simulation, while 2DEG mobility is around cccc 2 /VVVV. 13/13

It approaches the unscreened Coulomb potential at large values of r. The parameters will be adjusted until good convergence achieves between calculation results and experimental data.
