摘要
The maximum carrier concentration found for GaAs:Si is n(max) similar to 2 x 10(19) cm(-3), limited by the amphoteric behaviour of the Si impurities, the generation of gallium vacancies and Si precipitation. After annealing, a more typical concentration is 4 -5 x 10(18) cm(-3). GaAs:C doped to a level greater than p(max) similar to 10(19) cm(-3) is unstable during post-growth heat treatments, with the formation of C-C dimers that are deep donors. This process also occurs in. AIAs, but p(max) has not been determined. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
