  • Abstract
    A theoretical analysis and discussion is given of the effects of the varying depth of absorption of photons in photo-conductive decay experiments for the measurement of excess carrier lifetime and of surface recombination velocity. It is shown that no gross errors need arise from the procedures commonly practised, but that the thickness of filters necessary for accurate results is greater than that generally employed.
