Carrier lifetime
text:
A definition in semiconductor physics, carrier lifetime is defined as the average time it takes for a minority carrier to recombine. The process through which this is done is typically known as minority carrier recombination. The energy released due to recombination can be either thermal, thereby heating up the semiconductor, or released as photons. The carrier lifetime can vary significantly depending on the materials and construction of the semiconductor. Carrier lifetime plays an important ro
