Abstract: | The optical injection of minority carriers in the depletion region of a reverse biased Schottky barrier has permitted the
study of deep levels in vapour phase epitaxial n-type GaAsP (Te) structures. The deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS)
experiments have yielded two hole traps at (Ev + 0.60)eV and (Ev + O.36)eV. Additional subsidiary transient capacitance, photocurrent and capture experiments are analysed, the details of
which give electron and hole capture cross-sections, trap densities and activation energies. Derived values of minority carrier
lifetime (~1 ns) agree with experimental values and with injection-level dependent LED efficiency. |
