Abstract

Combined photoluminescence and DLTS investigations of semi-insulating and n-type GaAs before and after a 15min, 850°C heat treatment under AsH3 reveal that the treatment which anneals the EL6 center leads also to a disappearence of the O.8eV PL band. The suggested correlation between EL6 and the O.8eV PL is confirmed by the determination of the electron capture barrier of EL6 and the Franck-Condon shift deduced from the temperature dependence of the PL band leading to a consistant Configuration Coordinate diagram of this defect.
