Investigation of TSC peaks with non-constant recombination lifetime

A new set of expressions is derived to evaluate thermal activation energy E to TSC peaks with non-constant recombination lifetime. The validity of these expressions is discussed by calculating thermal activation energy E of a number of numerically computed TSC peaks using the present set of expressions and comparing them with those calculated using the formula of Chen. It has also been shown that the value of the parameter mu g characterising the geometrical shape of these TSC peaks is a function of U m =E/kT m demonstrating that mu g is not a unique parameter.
