Consider the following statements regarding carrier transport mechanisms in semiconductors: A. Impurity scattering causes a decrease in mobility with a decrease in temperature. B. A slow-moving carrier is likely to scatter more strongly by ionized impurities than a carrier with greater momentum. C. The drift velocity of an electron increases linearly with a decrease in carrier mobility at a constant electric field. D. The drift velocity of an electron decreases with a decrease in carrier mobility at a constant electric field. E. At high critical electric fields (around 105 V/cm), the drift velocity tends to saturate due to optical phonon scattering. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
