Abstract
The mean energy ${\ensuremath{\epsilon}}_{\ensuremath{\infty}}$ for electron-hole pair generation in silicon by $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ particles has been measured at different temperatures. For a given temperature, this value has been obtained by extrapolating to infinite collecting electric field the actual data at various finite fields. The experimental values are reported as a function of the forbidden energy gap, and compared with a theoretical expression due to Shockley.
