Which effect occurs in a gallium arsenide FET when bias exceeds velocity saturation?

💡 Explanation

Applying high electric fields causes electrons to gain enough energy to transfer from the high mobility Γ valley to the low mobility L valley; this is called Real Space Transfer, because the electrons ‘move’ to different energy bands, therefore current reduces rather than increases because mobility falls.
