Description

Temperature dependences have been investigated of electron and hole lifetimes in indium antimonide single crystals doped with chromium. It is shown that the structure defect and acceptor levels, their concentrations significantly increasing with chromium content in the melt, take part in the recombination of nonequilibrium current carriers in n-InSb/Cr in the temperature range 77/180 K. No supplementary recombination levels have been observeddafter chromium doping into indium antimonide. The effect of low-temperature annealing on recombination properties of doped indium antimonide is elucidated
