tidy3d.AugerRecombination

class AugerRecombination

Bases: Tidy3dBaseModel

Parameters for the Auger recombination model.

Parameters:

• c_n (PositiveFloat) – [units = cm^6/s]. Constant for electrons.

• c_p (PositiveFloat) – [units = cm^6/s]. Constant for holes.

Notes

The Auger recombination rate R_A is primarily defined by the electrons and holes Auger recombination coefficients, \(C_n\) and \(C_p\), respectively.

\[R_A = \left( C_n n + C_p p \right) \left( np - n_0 p_0 \right)\]

Example

>>> import tidy3d as td
>>> default_Si = td.AugerRecombination(
...   c_n=2.8e-31,
...   c_p=9.9e-32,
... )
