CONT

Dans le cas des SC [semiconducteurs] la recombinaison directe : l'électron se recombine directement avec un trou. Ce processus est généralement peu fréquent car il nécessite la présence d'un électron et d'un trou, ce qui est rare dans un dispositif polarisé sauf au moment même de la génération des charges.
