describe electrons as a gas of particles

vF = 108 cm/s.

kinetic theory

The average time between scattering events sccan be calculated by Fermi's golden rule

mean free path: l = vFsc ~ 1 nm - 1 cm

Electrons as waves or particles

Scattering of electrons can be thought of as transitions between k states or as collisions between particles.

Umklapp scattering of electrons by phonons makes large changes in the momentum of the electrons because of the reciprocal lattice vector G.

Ballistic transport

dvF ma eE mdt

electrons in an electric field follow a parabola.

electrons in a magnetic field move in a spiral

electrons crossed electric and magnetic fields spiral along the direction perpendicular to the electric and magnetic fields

If no forces are applied, the electrons diffuse.The average velocity moves against an electric field. In just a magnetic field, the average velocity is zero.In an electric and magnetic field, the electrons move in a straight line at the Hall angle.
