PhotoConductive Gain Formula Elements

Variables
PhotoConductive Gain
PhotoConductive Gain is defined as the ratio of the slow carrier transit time (or lifetime) to the fast carrier transit time.
Symbol: G
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Slow Carrier Transit Time
Slow Carrier Transit Time is when the response of the diffusion components of the photocurrent is relatively slow.
Symbol: tsl
Measurement: TimeUnit: ps
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Fast Carrier Transit Time
Fast Carrier Transit Time is when the response of the diffusion components of the photocurrent is relatively fast.
Symbol: tfa
Measurement: TimeUnit: ps
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
