“…2(a). The PL can be modeled via a generalized Planck radiation law 30,31 :where, is the emitted photon energy, A is the absorptivity, Δ μ is the chemical potential or quasi-Fermi-level separation under laser excitation, and T C represents the non-equilibrium hot carrier temperature. In the simplest case, taking a linear fit to the high-energy tail of the natural logarithm of a PL spectrum determines the carrier temperature 14,15,24,25,32 .…”
