摘要
A simple model of isolated and paired isoelectronic substitutional traps in GaP is presented that successfully explains the anomalous monotonic-in-n ordering of the nth nearest-neighbor (NN)n-pair levels, with pair energies that vary as the inverse cube of the N-N separation. The model is a multiband deep-level theory that includes the effects of lattice relaxation around the impurities. It is predicted that (Bi,Bi)n pairs will not exhibit the monotonic-in-n ordering of NNn pairs, that (Bi,Bi)1 and (Bi,Bi)2 will be resonant with the valence band, and that hydrostatic pressure can drive the Bi trap into the valence band. © 1990 The American Physical Society.
