摘要
Photoexcitation of amorphous selenium at 20 K is shown to excite two different kinds of ESR-active defects in concentrations up to 10(20) cm(-3) which are identified as neutral singly and triply coordinated defect pairs, the former defect being more stable. At higher temperatures, charged valence alternation pairs are formed but not by a direct charge transfer. Instead, this process requires intermediate bond breaking. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
