Using the Ensemble Monte Carlo (EMC) simulation technique, the electronic transport performance of germanene sheets is explored, where only intrinsic scattering effects are included. The transport properties of the material are obtained where intra- and inter-valley scatterings are considered. The average velocity of carriers as a function of time, the steady state velocity of carriers as a function of applied field curves, and the best linear fits to these curves at low fields at each temperature are made, and the mobility is calculated from the slope of these best lines. The evaluated velocity–electric field characteristics reveal a negative differential resistance (NDR) behavior. Carrier mobility as a function of temperature is obtained, exhibiting consistency with previously reported theoretical findings.
