Public Functions Documentation

function ShockleyReadHall

inline ShockleyReadHall(
    double temperature,
    bool doping
)

function operator()

inline virtual bool operator()(
    const CarrierType & type,
    double doping,
    double survival_prob,
    double timestep
) const override

Parameters:

• type Type of charge carrier (electron or hole)
• doping (Effective) doping concentration
• survival_prob Current survival probability for this charge carrier
• timestep Current time step performed for the charge carrier

Return: Recombination status, true if charge carrier has recombined, false if it still is alive

Reimplements: allpix::RecombinationModel::operator()

Reimplemented by: allpix::ShockleyReadHallAuger::operator()

Function call operator to obtain recombination status (recombined/alive) for the given carrier and doping concentration
