Abstract

We employ transient photocurrent decay measurements to determine the distribution of conduction band tail states in hydrogenated amorphous silicon. It is found that these experimental results suggest the possibility of deviations from a single-exponential functional form. This is consistent with other more recent experimental determinations of the distribution of conduction band tail states in hydrogenated amorphous silicon. © 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
