We have employed the framework of quantum magnetoconductivity to develop an experimental method of directly measuring the mobility µph representing inelastic electron-phonon scattering at a given temperature T. Further, we relate µph to material parameters via an equation µph(T) = function(T,Tph,m*,eps-0,eps-inf), where m* is the effective mass, eps-0 and eps-inf are the static and high-frequency dielectric constants, and kTph is an effective phonon energy that represents all the phonon interactions contributing to µph at temperature T. We apply this methodology to an “old” material ZnO; an exciting “new” material, β-Ga2O3; and a combination of the two, ZnGa2O4.
