Abstract

A model is proposed for discussing deep defect levels in covalent solids, based on the representation of the one−electron energies of the crystal by the eigenvalue spectrum of a small periodic cluster of atoms. Calculations of this model by semiempirical MO−LCAO methods for a vacancy problem in hexagonal boron nitride and graphite and substitutional boron impurity in graphite, yield satisfactory results when compared with experimental EPR, thermoluminescence, and thermally−stimulated−currents data.
