#1
Front (Question)

What are the two types of Electron-Hole pairs in light-matter interactions, and what do they do? ***

Back (Answer)

1) Recombination → Produces Light *** 2) Generation → Cause by incident light promotes electrons ***

#2
Front (Question)

What does the P-N Junction do in Recombination?

Back (Answer)

• Current can produce Light to → Light Emitting Diode (LED) • Higher to Low Photon

#3
Front (Question)

What does the P-N Junction do in Generation? Hint: E-H pairs

Back (Answer)

• Electron-Hole pairs can be seperated into → Current into → Photodectors

#4
Front (Question)

In Phonon Dispersion, what does the (ω) stand for?

Back (Answer)

ω → Scattering Angular Frequency Remember: Also ω - Angular Velocity

#5
Front (Question)

In Phonon Dispersion, k = 2π/λ. What does is stand for?

Back (Answer)

k = 2π/λ → Scattering Magnitude

#6
Front (Question)

In a Phonon Dispersion Graph, when the slope is near k = 0, what does this represent?

Back (Answer)

Lower Branch = Speed Of Sound (Acoustic)

#7
Front (Question)

In a Phonon Dispersion Graph, when the slope is near k = ±π/a, what does this represent? **

Back (Answer)

Slope near k = ±π/a → Standing Waves **

#8
Front (Question)

In a Phonon Dispersion Graph, Heat Capacity can be calculated by using 2 curves, a red and blue curve. What do these represent?

Back (Answer)

Blue Curve (Optical) = Speed Of Light Red Curve (Acoustic) = Speed Of Sound

#9
Front (Question)

When photons are released they go from ….

Back (Answer)

Photons released go from Conduction band to → Valence band

#10
Front (Question)

When photons are absorbed they go from….

Back (Answer)

Photons absorbed go from Valence band to → Conduction band
