Measurements are reported of the field-effect mobility ${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{\mathrm{FE}}$ in strong accumulation layers on the polar surfaces of ZnO crystals. Results are presented of ${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{\mathrm{FE}}$ as a function of surface electron density $\ensuremath{\Delta}N$ (in the range ${10}^{12}$-${10}^{14}$ ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}2}$) and of temperature (2-300 K). By a suitable integration procedure it has been possible to derive from the field-effect data the ordinary conductivity mobility $\ensuremath{\mu}$ as a function of $\ensuremath{\Delta}N$ and temperature. At a fixed temperature both ${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{\mathrm{FE}}$ and $\ensuremath{\mu}$ initially rise with increasing $\ensuremath{\Delta}N$, reach a maximum at $\ensuremath{\Delta}N\ensuremath{\approx}(2\ensuremath{-}5)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{13}$ ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}2}$, and then gradually decrease with a further increase in $\ensuremath{\Delta}N$. For high $\ensuremath{\Delta}N$ (\ensuremath{\gtrsim} ${10}^{13}$ ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}2}$) ${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{\mathrm{FE}}$ and $\ensuremath{\mu}$ are practically temperature independent; for low $\ensuremath{\Delta}N$ (\ensuremath{\lesssim} 3 \ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{} ${10}^{12}$) they decrease strongly with decreasing temperature, indicating carrier localization at low temperatures. The results of the conductivity mobility $\ensuremath{\mu}$ agree well with those of the Hall mobility ${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{H}$ reported earlier, and provide further support for the model proposed there of charged scattering centers consisting of large conglomerates of surface ions.
