Sažetak
Defects having deep levels in the forbidden energy gap of semi-insulating (SI) GaAs play an important role in its low-temperature transient properties ( e. g. photoconductivity, absorption, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) etc.). Optical absorption time evolutions (transients), for several infrared (IR) photon energies were measured. Simple model, based on dominant deep level EL2 behavior under illumination, was used for calculation of theoretical absorption transients. Experimental and theoretical results were compared and discussed. It was concluded that qualitative accordance is good and that model can be successfully used in EL2 initial occupancy estimation. For better quantitative agreement, model should be improved by additional mechanisms and/or with including of some deep levels other than EL2.
