3.7.2 Auger Recombination

Auger-processes are modeled using a triple concentration product using the following equation

$$R^{\mathrm{AU}}=\left(C_n^\mathrm {AU} \cdot n + C_p^\mathrm {AU} \cdot p\right) \cdot \left( n\cdot p - {n_i}^2\right).$$ (3.150)

The default values recommended for the Auger model are summarized in the following table:
