Tóm tắt

This short review of recombination processes in semiconductors shows that one is still very far from having a complete understanding of these processes. Furthermore nearly all the experimental work has been on Germanium, with Silicon a poor second. The problems of surface recombination may be expecially difficult because a one electron picture is not expected to hold.
