Abstract

A study was performed on charge carrier mobility in a system comprising of cadmium sulfide nanoparticles (QCdS) dispersed in poly(N-vinylcarbazole). The time-of-flight technique was used to measure the mobility of holes. It was found that hole mobility depended strongly on the temperature and electric field showing Poole-Frenkel-like activated hopping transport.
