Surface recombination strongly influence on the photoconductivity decay curve. In this work it was shown that usually defined using this curve the effective life time don’t achieve maxima value if silicon sample thickness exceeds six diffusion length. In this case well known formulas for calculation of free carrier recombination lifetime need to be adjusted.
