Synopsis
This book deals exclusively and comprehensively with the main aspects of the physics of recombination in semiconductors. The text begins with chapters on semiconductor statistics and recombination statistics, and moves on to examine the main recombination mechanisms: Auger effects, impact ionisation, radiative recombination, and defect and multiphonon recombination.
