Abstract :
In this work a theoretical model is derived for predicting the response of a photoconductor. This model takes into account direct recombination, surface recombination, recombination through traps (for the two limiting cases of high- and low-trap effect), Auger-type processes, and diffusion effect. Complete solutions are obtained for both steady-state and transient conditions for these various cases.
