Abstract:Author's Summary: When electrons in a semiconductor are generated by light, they can diffuse for a certain distance before being recombined. The length of diffusion is indicative of the material quality but, unfortunately, the motions of the electrons are difficult to observe directly. The focus of this project was to find a simple and effective way to measure the diffusion length of electrons in a semiconductor material. A laser was used to generate electrons in a small area and an imaging camera was used to … Show more
