Thedrift velocityis the averagevelocitythat a particle, such as anelectron, attains due to anelectric field.
Drift velocity is expressed in the following equations:


where
is the charge density,
is charge density (in unitsC/m3), and
is the drift velocity, and where
is theElectron mobility(in units (m^2)/V*s) and
is theelectric field(in units V/m).
