Impurity Photomagnetoelectric Effect: Application To Semi-Insulating Gaas, David C. Look Dec 1977

Impurity Photomagnetoelectric Effect: Application To Semi-Insulating Gaas, David C. Look

Physics Faculty Publications

The theories of the photomagnetoelectric (PME) and photoconductivity (PC) effects in semiconductors are extended to include unequal excitation rates of holes and electrons, as might be expected from impurity photo-excitation. The results are applied to two semi-insulating Cr-doped GaAs crystals, which exhibit mixed conductivity. It is seen that the PC and PME effects give complementary information on the holes and electrons. In the impurity excitation region the PME current responds strongly to changes in the absorption coefficient, and provides a convenient way to study this quantity.

The Electrical Characterization Of Semi‐Insulating Gaas: A Correlation With Mass‐Spectrographic Analysis, David C. Look Dec 1977

The Electrical Characterization Of Semi‐Insulating Gaas: A Correlation With Mass‐Spectrographic Analysis, David C. Look

Physics Faculty Publications

The room‐temperature electrical properties of 28 semi‐insulating GaAs crystals have been determined by using a mixed‐conductivity analysis. It is shown that for most of these samples, such an analysis gives good accuracy for the electron mobility μn and electron concentration n, but poorer accuracy for the hole mobility μp, hole concentration p, and intrinsic concentration ni. The intrinsic concentration is determined at 296 °K to be ni ≈ (1.7±0.4) ×106 cm−3, which compares favorably with the theoretical value deduced from the band gap and the effective masses. From a …

Hall-Effect Measurements In Cd-Implanted Gaas, B. K. Shin, David C. Look, Y. S. Park, J. E. Ehret Apr 1976

Hall-Effect Measurements In Cd-Implanted Gaas, B. K. Shin, David C. Look, Y. S. Park, J. E. Ehret

Physics Faculty Publications

Cadmium ions were implanted in GaAs crystals at 135 keV to doses ranging from 1012 to 1016 ion/cm2 at room temperature. Sheet‐resistivity and Hall‐effect measurements were carried out as a function of temperature, 4.2–300°K, after annealings at 700, 800, or 900°C in an Ar ambient. The sample surfaces were protected with pyrolytically deposited Si3N4. Significant p‐type conduction was observed when samples with doses ≳1013cm−2 were annealed at ≳700°C. For doses below 1014 cm−2 nearly complete electrical activity was attained after an 800–900°C anneal. The Cd profiles were …

Young's Modulus And Internal Damping In A Vibrating Rod, H. M. Simpson, Paul J. Wolfe Jun 1975

Young's Modulus And Internal Damping In A Vibrating Rod, H. M. Simpson, Paul J. Wolfe

Paul J. Wolfe

A high‐Q mechanical oscillator in the form of a metallic rod with an eddy current driver is described. With this oscillator and a simple crystal transducer the characteristics of a mechanical oscillator can be easily studied and Young’s modulus for the metal can be found. With an inexpensive FM transducer system the internal damping of the metal can also be measured.

High-Temperature Annealing In Electron-Irradiated Cds, David C. Look Jan 1974

High-Temperature Annealing In Electron-Irradiated Cds, David C. Look

Physics Faculty Publications

The room‐temperature irradiation of as‐grown n‐type CdS by 1‐MeV electrons results in an increase in carrier concentration. The damage anneals in the temperature range 250–300°C, and a study of the annealing kinetics reveals an activation energy of about 1.3 eV which is attributed to sulfur‐vacancy motion.

Nuclear-Magnetic-Resonance Study Of Co2+ In Cds, David C. Look, Donald R. Locker Aug 1972

Nuclear-Magnetic-Resonance Study Of Co2+ In Cds, David C. Look, Donald R. Locker

Physics Faculty Publications

Nuclear spin-lattice relaxation times, T1, have been measured over a temperature range T=(1.1-300) °K and frequency range ν=2-15 MHz in a single crystal of CdS doped with 13-ppm cobalt. Minima in T1 vs T are observed, and absolute values of the effective electron relaxation time, τe, may be calculated at the temperatures of the minima, e.g., at 14 °K, τe=8.0×10-8 sec. At low temperatures, T≲5 °K, τe is dominated by a resonant Orbach process involving the two ground-state Kramers doublets (S=±3/2 and S=±1/2) which, according to our measurements, are split by …

Nuclear-Magnetic-Resonance Measurement Of The Conduction-Electron G Factor In Cdte, David C. Look, D. L. Moore May 1972

Nuclear-Magnetic-Resonance Measurement Of The Conduction-Electron G Factor In Cdte, David C. Look, D. L. Moore

Physics Faculty Publications

The effective g factor g* of conduction electrons in degenerate CdTe has been determined by using measurements of the Cd113 nuclear spin-lattice relaxation time T1 and the Knight shift K. It is shown that the magnitude of g* is given by the Korringa product T1TK2=C(g*)2, where C is a known constant and T is the absolute temperature, and that the sign of g* is given by the sign of K for a spherically symmetric conduction band. The measured value, g*=-1.1±0.1, is within the range allowed …

Nuclear-Magnetic-Resonance Studies Of The Semiconductor-To-Metal Transition In Chlorine-Doped Cadmium Sulfide, Frank D. Adams, David C. Look, Carlton L. Brown, Donald R. Locker Oct 1971

Nuclear-Magnetic-Resonance Studies Of The Semiconductor-To-Metal Transition In Chlorine-Doped Cadmium Sulfide, Frank D. Adams, David C. Look, Carlton L. Brown, Donald R. Locker

Physics Faculty Publications

Spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) and Knight shifts were measured for Cd113 nuclei in 12 CdS crystals doped with various amounts of chlorine. Hall coefficients were measured in order to estimate conduction-electron concentrations. Data were obtained for all samples at 300 °K and for some highly doped samples at 77, 4.2, and 2.13 °K. Metallic properties were observed in all samples having electron concentrations n>2×1018 cm-3. At 300 °K, we find 1/T1∝n for nonmetallic samples and 1/T1∝n2/3 when samples are metallic. The latter proportionality continues to hold at lower …

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Investigation Of The Metal-To-Semiconductor Transition In Crystalline Cdo, R. P. Benedict, David C. Look Dec 1970

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Investigation Of The Metal-To-Semiconductor Transition In Crystalline Cdo, R. P. Benedict, David C. Look

Physics Faculty Publications

Measurements of the Cd113 nuclear-spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) and resonance frequency shift (K) were carried out in several samples of polycrystalline n-type CdO over the temperature (T) range 1.4-300°K, frequency (ν) range 2-10 MHz, and carrier concentration (Ne) range 3.3-44×1018 cm-3. For Ne>1019 cm-3, we find that T1∝Ne-2/3T-1 and K∝Ne1/3, showing that the nuclei are interacting with degenerate conduction electrons. Furthermore, the Korringa relationship holds and the calculated electron density at a nucleus is almost the same as …

Time Saving In Measurement Of Nmr And Epr Relaxation Times, David C. Look, Donald R. Locker Feb 1970

Time Saving In Measurement Of Nmr And Epr Relaxation Times, David C. Look, Donald R. Locker

Physics Faculty Publications

By producing a train of absorption or dispersion signals (continuous‐wave magnetic resonance) or free induction decays (pulsed magnetic resonance) it is possible to save time in spin‐lattice relaxation measurements due to the fact that it is not necessary to wait for equilibrium magnetization before initiating the train. The relaxation time may be calculated from the train according to a simple rapidly converging iteration.

Nmr Determination Of The Conduction-Electron Hyperfine Interaction In Crystalline Cdo, David C. Look

Physics Faculty Publications

Measurements of the Cd113 nuclear-spin-lattice relaxation time T1 and Hall effect in crystalline CdO, a degenerate semiconductor, have yielded the contact hyperfine strength of the conduction electrons at the nuclei. The product T1T=168 sec °K, independent of temperature T and frequency ν for T=1.4,4.2, and 77-350 °K, and for ν=2-10 MHz. Taking the carrier concentration N=2.6×1019 cm-3 independent of temperature to within 3% at 4.2, 77, and 300°K, and using an effective electron mass me*=0.2me, we calculate an averaged electron probability density at the nucleus, 〈|φF(0)|2 …
