Abstract

For a very large number of samples of a semiconducting material, which is not intentionally doped, the Fermi-level coincides approximately with the respective energy levels of the accidential impurities and defects. Based on this fact, the energies of localized levels were determined from a statistic of the Fermi-level in CdSe platelets. These energies agree very well with most of the values obtained with different methods by other authors.
