Effects of high carrier concentrations on some optical properties of semiconductors

Many semiconductor devices, such as heterostructure lasers and silicon bipolar transistors, require large concentrations of free carriers in the conduction and/or valence band of an active region. Under these conditions the band gap of the material is reduced by the many-body interactions of the car...
