For a silicon diode with long P and N regions, the accepter and donor impurity concentrations are 1 × 
and 1 ×
, respectively. The lifetimes of electrons in P region and holes in N region are both 100 µs. The electron and hole diffusion coefficients are 49
and 36
, respectively. Assume kT/q = 26 mV, the intrinsic carrier concentration is 1 × 
, and q = 1.6 ×
C. When a forward voltage of 208 mV is applied across the diode, the hole current density (in nA/
) injected from P region to N region is _____________.
