A general matrix method for the time dependent rate equations applied to inelastic collisions is presented. The minimal information needed to compute the collisional cross-sections is deduced and used to study the particular case of two excited levels.

AbstractThis paper investigates the robustness of the thermally stimulated current technique as a method to determine the density of states distribution in thin film semiconductors under a wide range of conditions. Numerical simulation is used to solve the non-linear time-dependent rate equations for free and trapped charge in systems with continuous and structured DOS profiles. We explore the derivation of energy and density scales from temperature and conductivity data. We examine for these systems the limits of the method's apparent immunity to varying conditions of strong and weak retrapping, and investigate the corrections required for variations in carrier lifetime with temperature.

A careful inspection of the cumulative curve of confirmed COVID-19 infections in Italy and in other hard-hit countries reveals three distinct phases: i) an initial exponential growth (unconstrained phase), ii) an algebraic, power-law growth (containment phase), and iii) a relatively slow decay. We propose a parsimonious compartment model based on a time-dependent rate of depletion of the susceptible population that captures all such phases for a plausible range of model parameters. The results suggest an intimate interplay between the growth behavior, the timing and implementation of containment strategies, and the subsequent saturation of the outbreak.
