Abstract

In the present work we calculate the non-linear additives to the Brooks-Herring electrostatic screened potential. We also calculate the corresponding additives to the ionized impurity scattering mobility in n-GaAs over a wide range of doping levels and temperatures. It is demonstrated that the additives to the mobility changes its value up to 50%. The most dramatically mobility is changed near the Mott transition, when the doping level is about 101410^{14} - 2×10162\times10^{16} cm3^{-3} and temperature is below 50 K. Also, the results allow us to conclude that the non-linear additives break the cross section symmetry with respect to the sign of the charge of the scattering center.
