Results are presented of a deep level transient spectroscopy study of radiation-induced defects in p-type (Zn-doped) InP grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Three major hole traps (H3, H4, and H5) and two electron traps (EA and EB) were observed. The electron trap structure in particular is significantly different from that reported in the literature for p-type InP grown by other methods. Activation energies of 0.22 eV (EA) and 0.76 eV (EB) have been measured, and capture cross sections (σ∞) of 4.4×10−15 cm2 (EA), and 1.4×10−12 cm−2 (EB) have been determined. The H5 center has a thermally activated capture cross section with an energy barrier of 0.35 eV. The measured injection annealing rate of the primary hole trap (H4) was different than previously observed.
