Abstract
We report calculations of the Gamma(8) -Gamma(7) spin-orbit splittings of s ubstitutional acceptor levels in silicon and diamond and corresponding Rama n measurements for Si:X (X = B, Al, Ga, In). The calculations were performe d using a Green's function method based on a full-zone 30 x 30 kp Hamiltoni an together with a Slater-Koster ansatz for the acceptor potential. The res ults are in reasonable agreement with experimental data. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
