摘要
A complete set of parameters that control the transport of minority carriers in heavily doped n-type Si has been measured by a combination of steady-state and transient electrical techniques on special test transistors with opaque polysilicon emitters of electrical activation N(D) = 1.4 x 10(20) cm-3. Using the frequency dependence of the input admittance, the minority carrier lifetime in the temperature range between 280 and 410 K was found to be constant with a value of 199 ps. The "apparent" bandgap narrowing was measured with a temperature-dependent d.c. method and amounts to 95 meV. Using these values the minority carrier mobility of 162 cm2 Vs-1 was then extracted from the base saturation current.
