Hydrogen in germanium

Description

Hydrogen is shown to form molecular acceptors and donors in pure germanium. Piezospectroscopy reveals that the hydrogen-related shallow donor D has non-tetrahedral symmetry. One hydrogen atom is incorporated in D as shown with an isotope shift in the donor ground state. Oxygen is also involved in the formation of D. The hole emission rates of two copper--hydrogen acceptor complexes were determined with Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy. They are e1/sup Cu-H/ = 1.5 x 108 T2 exp (-.195 eV/kT) K-2 s-1 and e3/sup Cu-H/ = 5.0 x 108 T2 exp (-.068/kT) K-2 s-1
