Abstract
It is proposed that measurements of the isothermal pressure dependences of emission rates and capture cross sections can provide a quantitative measure of the lattice volume relaxation accompanying carrier capture and emission processes by deep levels. The method is demonstrated for the gold acceptor and the oxygen-vacancy pair (A-center) levels in silicon. The results represent what is believed to be the first quantitative determinations of these relaxations for any deep levels in any semiconductor.
