Abstract:
A model of thermal relaxation within localized states based on the extended multiple trapping framework is used to describe the red-shift of the emission maximum intensity as the excitation energy decreases. The model is applied to amorphous hydrogenated silicon (a-Si:H) and to organic-inorganic hybrids systems giving values for the energy gap, E 0 , (1.896–3.882 eV) and for the β (4.36–12.08 eV -1 ) parameter that characterizes the experimental decay of the density of localized states within the gap consistent with those achieved by some other recombination models previously reported for a-Si:H.. The thermal relaxation within localized states model is more physically detailed incorporating radiative and non-radiative transition mechanism for carriers relaxing into localized states that are explicitly absent in the previously reported theoretical descriptions Copyright EDP Sciences/Società Italiana di Fisica/Springer-Verlag 2006
