PC1D

Hey Don,

PC1D can be set up to simulate transient photoconductance (PC). Very
useful. But I can't find a simple way to extract the data for external
analysis.

I think the data could be extracted by running a batch and inserting "time
step" as the input parameter and "CCum_(width)" as the output parameter,
but there doesn't seem to be the option of setting "time step" as an input
parameter. Can it be done? (In this case, one would use illumination for
the steady-state solution, no illumination for the transient solutions, and
one time step; and then extract the cumulative excess conductivity at the
final node as a function of time after illumination.)

Alternatively, the transient solution could be attained if one could plot
CCum_(width) at the final node as a function of time. Then copy the data
from the graph into excel and analyse it.

Hope you can help (by adding one or both features, or by letting me know
how else data from a transient PC simulation can be easily extracted). I
think there's plenty of people who are interested in steady-state and
transient PC simulations who don't know how to do them in PC1D.

Hope things are going well for you, wherever you are,

Keith.

(p.s. I'm now at the ANU.)
