“…Dn is the electron's intrinsic diffusion coefficient δ(x) is excess minority carrier density in the base (g) Ê(x) is the electric field originating from carrier concentration gradient along the base (g) me is the electron mass T is the absolute temperature τn is the charge carrier lifetime The magnetic field helps to reduce electron-hole recombination rate for the silicon crystal, while increasing charge carrier lifetime τn [20,36,37] and thus consequently increasing Dn [38] and electric voltage-current, respectively.…”

“…Weak dc magnetic fields (0.17 T) increased the free carrier lifetime in Si wafers, which was thought to be convincing evidence of the metal impurity gettering effect. This processing was found to improve carrier lifetimes by up to a factor of 2, from about 3 μs to 7 μs in silicon wafers [24]. The effect of magnetic field on the photocurrent generation of organic solar cells, was investigated.…”

“…Magnetic field measurements are widely applied in fields such as fundamental physics discipline, aerospace engineering, the modification of semiconductor compounds, and biomagnetic signal tests [1][2][3][4][5], wherein biomagnetic signal measurement is an essential branch of future medical development [6]. In recent years, commercial magnetocardiography (MCG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) test instruments have emerged, and these signals belong to low-frequency and ultraweak magnetic signals [7].…”
