| Abstract: | Deep level transient spectroscopy has been applied for the first time to the study of deep level defects in n-GaAs nuclear radiation detectors. Devices made from commercial bulk and epitaxial material with net donor impurity densities in the range 5 x 10 13 -3 x 10 16 cm -3 have been studied and several common levels observed. The Poole-Frenkel effect has been identified in three levels (Ev + 0.19 eV, Ec - 0.62 eV Ec - 0.73 eV) in the epitaxial GaAs. A value for the Poole-Frenkel constant of β = 4.7 ≥ 1.4 x 10-4 eV V-½ cm½ was obtained compared to the theoretical value for GaAs of 2.3 x 10-4 eV V-½ cm½. |
