This lecture covers the transport and recombination mechanisms in crystalline and disordered semiconductors, including charge transport, generation, recombination, traps, and recombination centers. It explains the different recombination models, such as Shockley-Read-Hall, and the application to non-degenerate semiconductors. The concept of quasi Fermi levels and their role in describing free carrier densities out of equilibrium is also discussed.
