Positive Identification Of The Cr(4+)-->Cr(3+) Thermal Transition In Gaas, David C. Look, S. Chaudhuri, L. Eaves Dec 1982

Positive Identification Of The Cr(4+)-->Cr(3+) Thermal Transition In Gaas, David C. Look, S. Chaudhuri, L. Eaves

Temperature-dependent Hall-effect measurements on two Cr-doped GaAs samples
show a dominant center at E1 =0.324—1.4 x 10-4T eV, with respect to the valence-band edge. By comparison with secondary-ion mass spectroscopy measurements of the Cr concentration, and recent EPR measurements of the Cr2+, Cr3+, and Cr4+ concentration in several samples, it is shown unambiguously that this energy describes the Cr4+→Cr3+ transition. This is the first conclusive evidence for a charge-state transition involving Cr4+ in GaAs.

Magneto-Hall And Magnetoresistance Coefficients In Semiconductors With Mixed Conductivity, David C. Look Feb 1982

Magneto-Hall And Magnetoresistance Coefficients In Semiconductors With Mixed Conductivity, David C. Look

Physics Faculty Publications

Magneto-Hall and magnetoresistance formulas, correct to order B2, are derived for the case in which both single-carrier and mixed-carrier effects are important. Also, a new magneto-Hall coefficient Is Presented: β=‹π4›‹π›/‹π23 - 1. Values of β for various scattering mechanisms are calculated and compared with experiment


Evidence Of Intrinsic Double Acceptor In Gaas, Phil Won Yu, W. C. Mithel, M. G. Mier, S. S. Li, Weizhen Wang Jan 1982

Evidence Of Intrinsic Double Acceptor In Gaas, Phil Won Yu, W. C. Mithel, M. G. Mier, S. S. Li, Weizhen Wang

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

Acceptors present in undoped p‐type conducting GaAs have been studied with photoluminescence, temperature‐dependent Hall measurements, deep level transient spectroscopy, and spark source mass spectrometry. It is shown that p‐type conduction is due to presence of the shallow acceptor CAs and the cation antisite double acceptor GaAs. The first and second ionization energies determined for GaAs are 77 and 230 meV from the valence‐band edge.


Atomic Carbon In The Atmosphere Of Venus, Jane L. Fox Jan 1982

Atomic Carbon In The Atmosphere Of Venus, Jane L. Fox

Physics Faculty Publications

The densities of atomic carbon in the Venusian thermosphere are computed for a model which includes both chemistry and transport. The maximum density of C is 2.8×107 cm−3 near 150 km for an assumed O2 mixing ratio of 1×10−4. Photoionization of atomic carbon is found to be the major source of C+ above 200 km, and resonance scattering of sunlight by atomic carbon may be the major source of the C I emissions at 1561 Å, 1657 Å, and 1931 Å. The computed C+ densities are found to be in substantial agreement with …

The equations which determine partitioning of Clx in steady state have multiple (three) solutions under conditions which might arise in the high-latitude winter stratosphere. Two of these solutions are stable, one is unstable, to infinitesimal perturbations. The relative stability of solutions is examined by subjecting the system to finite perturbations. The more stable solution is found to eliminate the less stable when semi-infinite volumes of the two solutions are placed in contact. The high-ClO, low-NO2 solution is more stable under most conditions. Transitions from less to more stable states are slow in winter but may occur more rapidly …
