This paper presents the theoretical analysis of the diffusivity of electrons in wurtzite (WZ) indium nitride (InN) using an ensemble Monte Carlo (EMC) method. The electron diffusion coefficient D(E,d,ω) as the functions of the electric field (E), doping concentration (d), and frequency (ω) is investigated in detail. The research results show that the maximum zero-field diffusion coefficient is about 250 cm2/s. The diffusion coefficient parallel to the electric field is smaller than that of perpendicular to the electric field. Further investigation shows that the diffusion coefficient decreases greatly at high frequency. Using Einstein equation, we obtain the zero-field mobility and make comparisons with the references.
