We carried out the Hall measurements of n- and p-Si wafer under the concentrated sunlight irradiation to discuss the effect of large amount of carrier generation. The Hall mobility decreased linearly with increasing the sunlight concentration, and this decrease in mobility was caused by an increase of simultaneously-formed carriers (electron and hole). In this analysis, two additional points was found; one was that carrier type inversion was occurred only in p-Si sample even at low sunlight concentration, and the other was an amount of generated electron was 10 times larger than that of hole. This was explained by the numerical analysis by considering the difference in mobility of electron and hole when a large amount of carrier generated. To investigate the difference in the amount of generated electron and hole, we carried out the lifetime measurement of n- and p-Si wafer. We found that n-Si has extremely longer lifetime than that of p-Si. These experimental results will explain the fact that an amount of generated electron was 10 times larger than that of hole.
