    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 'Is 'Velocity of Transport' a Recognized Term in English Mechanics Literature?'

Here are two fragments from Banach's monograph in Mechanics I have never seen the term <<velocity of transport>> in English texts. Actually I have never seen this term being named somehow in English. This term has a name in Russian books. I looked through the original Banach's text in Polish and there is a Polish name for this term. It is a little bit surprising that the Polish name differs from the Russian one and also differs from this English translation. My question is: Is there...

Thread 'Is calling fictitious forces "not real" just about terminology?'

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
