Free carrier density and the electron momentum relaxation time

In summary, the study of free carrier density and electron momentum relaxation time focuses on the behavior of charge carriers in materials, particularly how their density affects electrical conductivity and mobility. The free carrier density, determined by factors like doping and temperature, influences the relaxation time, which is the average time between scattering events that impede electron motion. Understanding these parameters is crucial for optimizing the performance of electronic and optoelectronic devices.

TL;DR Summary
Need the above for a personal project. Looked on the internet and ScienceDirect.com but no luck.
Hi

For a personal project, where can I find the free carrier density and the electron momentum relaxation time of various substances (i.e. Carbon etc .....).

Is there a book or something ?

Thanks.

Searching on the internet can be a very lengthy business. How many hours have you spent, so far? Yes; that can be the timescale.
Sorry; I know nothing about the topic but I do have loads of experience looking for stuff on 'the Internet'.
