    Temperature Dependence of the Decay of Optically Excited Charge Carriers in Amorphous Silicon

    We report the temperature dependence of the growth and decay of the optically induced electron spin resonance (LESR) on short and long time scales (10-3 s < t < 2500 s). This range of times spans the region betwe...

    Recombination of Optically Excited Carriers in a-Si:H at Low temperatures and Intermediate Times

    Optically induced electron spin resonance (LESR) studies on time scales in between the previously published PL and LESR results (approximately 10 ms to 10 s) allow one to examine the cross over between energy-...

    Evolution of D0 and non-D0 Light Induced Defect States in a-Si:H Materials and Their Respective Contribution to Carrier Recombination

    A study has been carried out on the evolution of light induced defects in protocrystalline (diluted) a-Si:H films under 1 sun illumination. A room temperature reversal is observed in the photocurrents at 25 °C...
