Description
Photoluminescence spectra of CdTe and ZnTe implanted with 150 keV protons show that acceptor bound excitons have disappeared or are strongly attenuated and that a new exciton-like luminescence line rises at about 20 meV below the free exciton transition. This line is also seen in CdTe after 50 keV helium implantation. In addition a deep luminescence band at 0-8 eV is detected in CdTe. These results are interpreted as first the neutralization of acceptor impurities by atomic hydrogen and second the generation of double acceptor defects which could be cation vacancies in a stabilized form.
