  • Abstract
    A direct method of extracting bulk minority carrier diffusion length and surface recombination velocity from an EBIC line scan in the planar configuration is described. The accuracy of the method is verified by 3-D computer simulation and compared with existing methods. It mas found that this method is much simpler to use and gives better accuracy than existing methods
