Semiconductor Physics: A semiconductor has a intrinsic concentration of 1010 cm-3 and has donor impurity concentration of 1015 cm-3. Light is shined (uniformly) upon the sample generating 5*1019 electron-hole pairs.cm-3s-1 with a minority carrier lifetime of 10-6 s. What is the net electron-hole recombination rate? I think at steady state, the electron-hole recombination rate is the same as the generation rate. But the current circumstances of the question make me doubt that assumption or conclusion (the question is 4 marks).

An important application of PN diodes is their use as photodetectors. The optical radiation creates electron-hole pairs in the depletion region and regions within the diffusion lengths near the depletion edges. These e-h pairs are collected as a photocurrent. The e-h pairs are generated at the rate GL 1022 cm-3s1. Calculate the photocurrent.
