... 2a. Definition of Drift Velocity. The charge carrier drift velocity in a conducting material is proportional to the applied electric field strength. We can picture a conducting material as a “lattice” of atoms within which charge carrying particles (conduction electrons) move with a thermal distribu ...

Electromigration
Electromigration is the transport of material caused by the gradual movement of the ions in a conductor due to the momentum transfer between conducting electrons and diffusing metal atoms. The effect is important in applications where high direct current densities are used, such as in microelectronics and related structures. As the structure size in electronics such as integrated circuits (ICs) decreases, the practical significance of this effect increases.
