Ms. Yunusov et al., ON THE MECHANISMS OF LONG-TERM RELAXATION OF THE CONDUCTIVITY IN COMPENSATED SI(B,S) AND SI(B,RH) AS A RESULT OF IRRADIATION, Semiconductors, 32(3), 1998, pp. 238-240
Experimental data on the long-term relaxation of the photocurrent in c
ompensated samples of Si[B,S] and Si[B,Rh] are analyzed on the basis o
f three mechanisms (sticking levels, recombination processes via level
s with large relaxation, and separation of carriers in the spatial inh
omogeneity field). It is shown that in a number of cases irradiation (
by Co-60 gamma-rays at different temperatures) makes it possible to de
termine the dominant mechanisms. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physic
