A simple derivation of the EBIC collection efficiency is proposed to take account of the recombination in the depletion zone which is characterized by an effective recombination velocity for carriers generated in the neutral zone and an Hecht collection efficiency for carriers produced in the depleted zone. The new model is checked with experimental results and is in agreement with a rigorous model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
