2002/10/1· We propose a simplified empirical model for the density of state functions of hydrogenated amorphous silicon that neglects the conduction band tail electronic states. The corresponding joint density of states function is then computed. We find, while this analysis is considerably simplified, that the resultant joint density of states function compares favorably with that determined from an

The density-of-states effective mass for one conduction band minimum is the geometric mean over the three axis. However, in silicon there are six minima and thus the density-of-states effective mass required in equation (1) must be the geometric mean averaged over the six minima, namely me* - (6(mi*mt*2)ii2]2;s (2) Using the results of HENSEL et al.1s), me* = 1 -062 at 4-2`K.
