Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

3.2.2 Continuity and Ambipolar Transport

Course subject(s) Module 3 – Generation and Recombination

Surface Recombination

So far in this section we have focussed on the different recombination processes that occur in the bulk of a semiconductor material. A special case occurs at  the surface of the semiconductor, where the crystal lattice is interrupted. In this video you will learn about the recombination at the semiconductor surface.

Sorry but there don't seem to be any downloads..
