Photoconductivity derived from an exact modelling of the uncompensated one-donor model. II - Computer simulation of the steady-state exact model

Stationary photoconductivity is treated with the model of Part I, free from any of the usual simplifying approximations of the related equations. This simulation leads to set forth a new concept of characteristic temperature To, at which the donor population is independent of the illumination intensity G. To separates two intervals of temperature over which G either partially empties (T< T-0) or fills (T> T-0) the level. Also T-0 has, in particular, an influence on the ratio n/p of free electrons and holes. The effective isothermal behaviour of n(G) shows that n(G) alpha G(1/2) on the lower side of the G range, and n(G) alpha G at higher G. Variations of n(T) at constant G also display original, To dependent, characteristics. Finally, a qualitative comparison is made of the 1D model with the two 1D(al) approximate models described in I, in order to distinguish their most prominent behaviour differences.
