Calculate the generation rate of electron-hole pairs given an incident intensity of photons.
Consider gallium arsenide at T=300 \mathrm{~K}. Assume the photon intensity at a particular point is I_{\nu}(x)=0.05 \mathrm{~W} / \mathrm{cm}^{2} at a wavelength of \lambda=0.75 \mu \mathrm{m}. This intensity is typical of sunlight, for example.
