optics{ photogeneration{ } }

• usage: $\mathrm{optional}$

• items: maximum 1

Triggers position-dependent generation rates, which are included in the current solver. Output generated carriers $G(x)$ and $G(x,E)$ due to photon absorption.

Important

The following general conditions must be satisfied when defining optics{ photogeneration{ } }

• optics{ light_propagation{ } } is specified in the input file.

output

• usage: $\mathrm{optional}$

• type: choice

• values: yes or no

• default: yes

If set to yes, then the generation rate as function of position $G(x)$ is outputted.

---

output_integrated

• usage: $\mathrm{optional}$

• type: choice

• values: yes or no

• default: no

If set to yes, then the generation rate as function of energy $G(E)$ is outputted.

---

output_energy_resolved

• usage: $\mathrm{optional}$

• type: choice

• values: yes or no

• default: no

If set to yes, then the generation rate as function of position and energy $G(x,E)$ is outputted.
