Nonequilibrium Steady-State Statistics and Associated Effects for Insulators and Semiconductors Containing an Arbitrary Distribution of Traps
Abstract
The statistics for an arbitrary distribution of traps under nonequilibrium steady-state conditions is derived, and it is seen to be identical in form to the Shockley-Read expression for a single trapping level. The energy dependence of the statistics has been investigated, and several interesting features have been deduced. It has been found appropriate to describe the occupancy of the traps in terms of two modulated Fermi-Dirac functions-one associated with trapped electrons, the other with trapped holes. It has been found possible to categorize the traps (into species) in terms of the ratio of their electron and hole capture cross sections. Detailed discussions are given for the electron and hole fillings of the traps as a function of energy, temperature, and illumination intensity for various trap distributions. The distinctions between shallow traps, recombination centers, and dead states are defined and discussed in detail.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
