Carrier Transport The topic of carrier transport will now be analyzed. First, carrier transport as a result of drift will be studied followed by an analysis of carrier transport caused by diffusion. Important equations of state will be derived. This topic will lead us directly into the analysis of the PN junction in the next section. Drift Pierret defines drift as the charged-particle motion in response to an applied electric field. From our earlier analysis of charge carriers in semiconductors, properties of the various electron states near the bottom of the conduction band and nea
