1. The collector current has two components : minority carriers and majority carriers. 2. Therefore, minority carrier conduction cannot be neglected for small stoichiometric deviations. 3. This method is called Minority Carrier Transient Spectroscopy ( MCTS ). 4. About the biased forward boundary layer, the minority carriers are injected. 5. Time-resolved photoluminescence is an alternate contactless method of determining minority carrier transport properties. 6. The minority carrier diffusion constant is directly proportional to carrier mobility. 7. In this condition minority carrier recombination rates are proportional to the number of carriers squared 8. In this condition minority carrier recombination rates are linear. 9. Bipolar transistors are so named because they conduct by using both majority and minority carriers . 10. The process through which this is done is typically known as "'minority carrier recombination " '.
