TL;DR: In this article, the carrier concentration is calculated for the transient associated with a deviation in carrier concentration from equilibrium consequent on injection, accumulation, exclusion, or extraction, and it is found that the duration of the transient is governed by the rC of the p-n or n-n+ junction when μEτ ≫ 1, with rC equal to the time of flight.
Abstract: The carrier concentration is calculated for the transient associated with a deviation in carrier concentration from equilibrium consequent on injection, accumulation, exclusion, or extraction. It is found that the duration of the transient is governed by the rC of the p-n or n-n+ junction when μEτ ≫ 1, with rC equal to the time of flight. The results are compared with experiment.
