Abstract

AbstractHigh‐resolution, variable temperature PL experiments were performed in the spectral region associated with recombination processes involving the ground and excited states of the neutral donor bound excitons. High‐resolution infrared measurements in combination with high‐sensitive SIMS unambiguously identified Si and O shallow donors and yield their ground state binding energies. These binding energies are in excellent agreement with values obtained by the analysis of the two‐electron‐satellite PL spectra considering the participation of ground and excited state donor bound excitons. This work clarifies conflicting aspects existing in donor identification and the binding energies of the impurities and excitons. (© 2003 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
