tidy3d.AugerRecombination

class AugerRecombination

Bases: Tidy3dBaseModel

Parameters for the Auger recombination model.

Parameters:

• attrs (dict = {}) – Dictionary storing arbitrary metadata for a Tidy3D object. This dictionary can be freely used by the user for storing data without affecting the operation of Tidy3D as it is not used internally. Note that, unlike regular Tidy3D fields, attrs are mutable. For example, the following is allowed for setting an attr obj.attrs['foo'] = bar. Also note that Tidy3D` will raise a TypeError if attrs contain objects that can not be serialized. One can check if attrs are serializable by calling obj.json().

• c_n (PositiveFloat) – Constant for electrons in cm^6/s

• c_p (PositiveFloat) – Constant for holes in cm^6/s

Notes

The Auger recombination rate R_A is primarily defined by the electrons and holes Auger recombination coefficients, \(C_n\) and \(C_p\), respectively.

\[R_A = \left( C_n n + C_p p \right) \left( np - n_0 p_0 \right)\]

Example

>>> import tidy3d as td
>>> default_Si = td.AugerRecombination(
...   c_n=2.8e-31,
...   c_p=9.9e-32,
... )
