Notes:
Excitation spectra have been measured at various temperatures for the intense luminescence lines at 1200 and 1320 nm which are observed in samples of Si-doped GaAs annealed at 900 and 500 °C, respectively. The excitation spectra of the 1200 nm line at 6 K has a sharp peak at 1.490 eV followed by a broad background component on the lower-energy side. This peak corresponds to the electronic excitation of donor (Si at Ga atom site) -acceptor (Si at As atom site) pairs in the crystal. The excitation spectra of the 1320 nm line at 6 K shows two peaks at 1.49 and 1.39 eV. The experimental results show clearly that the creation of donor-acceptor pairs in the above Si impurity complex is the major process of electronic excitation which leads to the intense luminescence at longer wavelengths such as 1200 and 1320 nm.
