Description

ODMR investigations of as-grown and electron-irradiated GaP confirm that the Psub(Ga) antisite defect behaves, in its singly ionised state P4+sub(Ga), as an electron trap in direct competition with band edge recombination processes. A broad photoluminescence band peaking at 1.1eV shows triplet (S=1) ODMR which is associated with the two-electron P3+sub(Ga) state of the antisite. The triplet excited state has <111> symmetry and is formed by spin-dependent electron transfer from shallow donors to the P4+sub(Ga) antisite. (author)
