Abstract
The presence of carriers in the grain boundary (GB) space charge is taken into account in solving numerically Poisson's equation. This allows one, by using a schematic description of electron excitation, to investigate the theoretical behaviour of the GB recombination velocity, measured by EBIC, in high injection conditions.
