<p>of the forward anode current <b><i>I<sub>A</sub></i></b> flowing in the device during its steady state.<br/>
#Minority carrier lifetime <b><i>?</i></b>, i.e. the mean time a free <a href="page.php?w=charge_carrier">charge carrier</a> moves inside a semiconductor region before <a href="page.php?w=Carrier_generation_and_recombination">recombining</a>.</p>

<p>Quantitatively, if the steady state of forward conduction lasts for a time much greater than <b><i>?</i></b>, the stored charge has the following approximate expression</p>
