Conceptual drawing explaining the high electron mobility of ITZO material

Caption

During a motorway emergency, cars move to one side to clear the path for emergency vehicles. In a similar fashion, free electrons move to the 10-nm-thick interface of the ITZO material with the carrier material and thus create a large bulk where current can flow unhindered.
