Photo carrier generation in the Semiconductor Module

I'm trying to figure out how to achieve photo-carrier generation in a direct band gap semiconductor in the COMSOL 4.4 semiconductor module. The only form of generation I see in the module is Impact Ionization which consists of various a,b,c, and d factors for electrons and holes. I need the equivalent of a photo-excitation signal to analyze the IV characteristics of a semiconductor. How can I model the generation of photo-carriers in the semiconductor module?

I'm trying to do the same thing. Any luck on coupling the physics?

Generation term is simply included by using User Defined Recombination and setting recombination rate to be negative
