5. The mobility measured in a Hall measurement generally overpredicts the true mobility of the electrons (drift mobility) by a factor of about 1-1.5. If included, this further increases the difference between the measured and the calculated mobilities in Table I.

8. This is valid provided, as in our films, both the Debye length (1.5 nm) and the electron mean-free path (1 nm) of the electrons in our films is smaller than the grain size (∼50 nm).
