Resumo

A method for measuring the lifetime of minority carriers in germanium is described. Basically, it consists of liberating the carriers optically on a flat face of a crystal and measuring the concentration of minority carriers as a function of distance from the point of liberation. The mathematical model is analyzed and experimental results are presented here.
