10 Derivation of the net recombination rate According to semiconductor theory 1 when the quasi-fermi level lies well below the corresponding band edge (non-degenerate semiconductor), Boltzmann statistics is a good approximation for the Fermi-Dirac formula. Hence, the concentration of carriers is given by n = N $ exp ) - *+),. / 0 p = N V exp E p F +EV k B T (S1) where E C and E V are the energies of the conduction and valence band edges, respectively, and E n F and E p F are the quasi-fermi levels. From Eq. (S1) we get np = N $ N < exp ) =+ ), > +), -. / 0 = N $ N < exp ) =+?<. / 0 (S2) where E g = E C - E V is the band gap and V = (E p F - E n F )/q. At high-injection conditions the photogenerated carrier densities well exceed intrinsic and majority carrier values. 1 In that situation electroneutrality requires that n = p. Therefore n = N $ N A exp ) =+?< A. / 0 (S3) Combining Eqs. (2) and (S3) we can write the recombination current in the device as J CDE = qdu CDE = J II exp γ ) =+?< A. / 0 (S4) where d is the thickness of the active layer and J 00 = qd(n C N V ) 1/2 k B T p 0. Numerical solution of Eqs. (3) and (4) Eqs. (3) and (4) in the main text U CDE LM LN = k 0p I n P (3)
11 D M L R M LS R U CDE + I I λ α λ exp α λ x = 0 (4) can be solved numerically 2,3 to obtain the current-voltage (J-V) curve and the dark current. The Forward Time Centered Space (FTCS) method was used with the following boundary conditions: 5 n(x= 0,t )=n 0 (V ) n(x,t=0)=n 0 (V ) ( dn(x,t ) dx ) = 0 x=d (S5) (S6) (S7) where d is the thickness of the active layer, V is the applied voltage and n 0 (V )=n 0 0 exp(v / k B T ) (S8) Once the equation is solved the photocurrent density for a given value of the potential V is obtained from the stationary density profile at x = 0 (it is assumed that collection of electrons and holes in external contacts is the same): J (V )= ( dn(x,t) dx ) x=0, t (S9) Solving Eqs. (3)-(4) for different values of V, and using Eq. (S8) and Eq. (S9), the full J-V curve can be obtained. The following parameters were used in the simulations (intended to approximately reproduce the conditions of the MIX/Spiro devices). Absorption coefficient: α (λ = 465 nm) = m -1 (blue), α (λ
12 = 635 nm) = m -1 (red), electron diffusion coefficient: 4 D n = m 2 s -1, photon flux: I 0 (λ = 465 nm) = m 2 s -1 (blue), I 0 (λ = 635 nm) = m 2 s -1 (red). Two recombination rates where considered: k rec = m 3(γ-1) s -1, corresponding to a diffusion length of L n = 1 µm 4 and k rec = m 3(γ-1) s -1, which yields L n = 0.1 µm for linear recombination (γ = 1). The numerical simulation was carried out using 300 points in x-space and points in t-space, which were found to be enough to ensure convergence and the steady-state is reached. Results of the numerical simulation can be found in Figure S9 for both linear (γ = 1), and non linear recombination (γ = 0.5). In the first case, simulated data where compared with the analytical results of Södergren et al. 5 In the second case, both slow and rapid recombination (long and short diffusion lenght) were compared. As explained in the main text, significant differences in the dark currents obtained between the red and the blue light illumination are only found in the non-linear case for a short-diffusion length.
