Abstract
A dynamical study of electron-exciton collision process in pure germanium is made by means of millimeter-wave cyclotron resonance combined with a photopulse technique. It is found that carrier recombination occurs primarily via exciton formation and subsequent annihilation process. The exciton lifetime is determined as a function of temperature.Keywords
