摘要： With a memory function approach, this paper investigates the electronic mobility parallel to the interface in a ZnSe/Zn1－xdx Se strained heterojunction under hydrostatic pressure by considering the intersubband and intrasubband scattering from the optical phonon modes. A triangular potential approximation is adopted to simplify the potential of the conduction band bending in the channel side and the electronic penetrating into the barrier is considered by a finite interface potential in the adopted model. The numerical results with and without strain effect are compared and analyzed. Meanwhile, the properties of electronic mobility under pressure versus temperature, Cd concentration and electronic density are also given and discussed, respectively. It shows that the strain effect lowers the mobility of electrons while the hydrostatic pressure effect is more obvious to decrease the mobility. The contribution induced by the longitudinal optical phonons in the channel side is dominant to decide the mobility. Compared with the intrasubband scattering it finds that the effect of intersubband scattering is also important for the studied material.
