A New Possible Interpretation about DX Center in AlGa As:Si
|
Abstract:
We have derived the statistics of electron distribution on DX center under different cases.The results are not consistent with the existing Hall experiments of Si doped AlGaAs reportedfrom different laboratories.We propose a possible explanation that there exists two differentkinds of donors SD and DX with comparable concentrations N_(SD) and N_(DX),N_(SD)/N_(DX) is increasedwith increasing N_(Si),SD is the shallow donor and DX is the negative U center bindingtwo electrons.The SD centers provide electrons and the electrons are captured by DXcenters.Therefore,the Fermi energy no longer pins to the DX energy level. Many experiments.are re-explained in this point of view.
