    Carrier Dynamics
AI Thread Summary
Photo-generated carrier dynamics refers to the behavior of charge carriers, such as electrons and holes, that are generated in a material when it absorbs photons. This process is crucial in understanding the efficiency of photovoltaic devices and semiconductor physics. The discussion seeks clarification on the concept and requests sources for further reading. The user has also indicated that they have cross-posted the inquiry in a more relevant forum section. Overall, the focus is on gaining a clearer understanding of the mechanisms behind photo-generated carriers.

I'm going to be working on a research project for an internship that involves photo-generated carrier dynamics, and after looking up the topic for a while, I haven't been able to find a source that explains what it is/means. I'd appreciate if anybody could take a minute to explain this concept to me, and maybe point me to a source. If you feel that providing more context would be helpful in your explanation, please don't hesitate to ask me.

Thanks!

EDIT: I've cross-posted this in the Particle Physics section, as I believe it is more appropriate. If this thread could be deleted here, it would be much appreciated!

Thread '1:1 versus 2:1 Mechanical Advantage debate'

The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...

Thread 'Newton's first law?'

Some physics textbook writer told me that Newton's first law applies only on bodies that feel no interactions at all. He said that if a body is on rest or moves in constant velocity, there is no external force acting on it. But I have heard another form of the law that says the net force acting on a body must be zero. This means there is interactions involved after all. So which one is correct?

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Hello! I have a question regarding a beam on an inclined plane. I was considering a beam resting on two supports attached to an inclined plane. I was almost sure that the lower support must be more loaded. My imagination about this problem is shown in the picture below. Here is how I wrote the condition of equilibrium forces: $$ \begin{cases} F_{g\parallel}=F_{t1}+F_{t2}, \\ F_{g\perp}=F_{r1}+F_{r2} \end{cases}. $$ On the other hand...
