Jp. Karamarkovic et Nd. Jankovic, NOVEL APPROXIMATIVE ANALYTICAL EXPRESSIONS FOR MINORITY-CARRIER TRANSIT-TIME INCLUDING RECOMBINATION, Microelectronics, 28(2), 1997, pp. 167-172
A novel analytical model for the minority-carrier transit time has bee
n developed including the recombination effects. It has been found tha
t the recombination effects substantially influence transit time in qu
asi-neutral regions with low effective contact recombination velocitie
s and/or low minority-carrier diffusion length. In these cases, the di
fference of charge control concept transit time and the basic transit
time definition have been analysed. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
