Homework Statement
GaAs has an effective density of states (DOS) = 4 × 1017 cm−3 for the conduction band, = 8 × 1018 cm−3 for the valence band and a band gap of = 1.42 eV.
a) A thin slice of GaAs is illuminated by a cw light source, creating a steady state
density of 1017 cm−3 of electrons and holes. Calculate the quasi-Fermi level of
holes and electrons for the system.
Homework Equations
ni = (NCNV)1/2 (-EG/2kT);
Ei = EG/2 + kT/2 * ln(NV/NC);
Efc-Ei = kTln(n/ni);
Efv-Ei = -kTln(p/ni);
Efc-Ei = kTln(1017/ni);
Efv-Ei = -kTln(1017/ni);
The Attempt at a Solution
My problem is that this equations is right?
