Hi, Thank you for your prompt reply. I believe, you are referring to this equation: I = nevA I - Current n = no of electrons per unit volume, e = charge of an electron, v = drift speed of an electron, A = cross sectional area of the wire However, n will be too large in general (10^18 -...

Thank you very much for your reply, Mr. MFB. So, to account/estimate the current induced, what is the best way? or any electrical software that can help in measuring the relation between number of photoelectrons (electron-hole pairs) and the current? Regards, M

Hi, I have a couple of questions on photoelectrons. When a photoelectron of about 3-eV (varies) interacts within 0.2-um depletion region of silicon, what happens? I know, it will generate an electron-hole pair with an efficiency of 1 for 3.6-eV photoelectron. But what happens if the...
