Abstract
A refined analytic solution is found for the two-dimensional continuity equation for the concentration of minority carriers in the passive base of a zero-drift triode with a strip emitter at low injection levels in the base. The recombination components of base current and the gain Bst are evaluated for arbitrary surface-recombination rates.
