The field–dependent interface recombination velocity for organic–inorganic heterojunction
PublicationWe have derived an analytical formula which describes the field–dependent interface recombination velocity for the boundary of two materials characterized by different permittivities. The interface recombination of charge carriers has been considered in the presence of image force Schottky barrier.
