The temperature dependence of band-to-band Auger recombination in silicon

The Auger recombination coefficient has been determined from the decay kinetics of highly excited silicon. It was found to be proportional to T0.6, increasing from 3.0×10−31 to 4.6×10−31 cm6s−1 in the temperature interval 195–372 K.
