We report on an ultrahigh Hall mobility exceeding 40 000 cm2/V s and a very long traditional scattering time in a trivial layered semiconductor Bi2O2Se. Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations were observed in both the unsaturated longitudinal linear magnetoresistance Rxx and the transverse Hall resistance Rxy. The amplitude ΔRxy of SdH oscillations was phase-shifted approximately 180° with respect to ΔRxx, indicating the strong suppression of electron backward scattering. This was further proved by the evidence of transport lifetime that is 10 times longer than the quantum lifetime. Our results show that the suppressed backward scattering in nontrivial Dirac semimetals can also occur in the trivial semiconductor Bi2O2Se.We report on an ultrahigh Hall mobility exceeding 40 000 cm2/V s and a very long traditional scattering time in a trivial layered semiconductor Bi2O2Se.
