A)inter-valence bond absorption
B)auger recombination
C)carrier leakage effects
D)exothermic actions

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Auger recombination is a non-radiative process in semiconductors where the energy released by the recombination of an electron-hole pair is transferred to another electron or hole, rather than being emitted as a photon. This process can significantly affect the efficiency of devices like LEDs and solar cells by reducing the number of photons generated.
