Units for generated carrier in the real time simulation

Dear Developers,
In the real time simulation there is an output file output.carriers in which 3rd and 4th column is written as
dN_hole and dN_elec . For each column the calculation gives some numbers. I did not find the units for dN_elec (the electron generated due to pump). Any help in this regard will be appreciated

# Time[fs] d(N_hole-N_elec) dN_hole dN_elec



Regards,

Dear Bramhachari Khamari,
I did not find the units for dN_elec
it is the number of electrons in the unit cell.
If you want to convert it into a density you just need to divide by the unit cell volume.

Best,
D.
