Description

Theoretical models of the local atomic structure of deep level centers produced by doping of II-VI semiconductors are reviewed. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) measurements on zinc-selenide doped with chlorine are presented. From the changes observed in the spectra with increasing chlorine concentrations, the existence of lattice distortions around the dopant sites is inferred. The relation of such lattice distortions with the proposed theoretical models is discussed. (Author)
