摘要: Isochronal annealing of zinc‐ or silicon‐doped GaAs as well undoped semi‐insulating low‐resistivity materials has been investigated by positron lifetime measurements. For impurity concentrations larger than 4.5×1017 cm−3, only monovacancy complexes such ZnGaVAs,  SiAsVGa, AsGaVGa are observed and they yield a 265±5 ps. less 1×1017 divacancies dominate 295±5 The grown‐in vacancies, either VAs VGa, both estimated to be in the range (1–4)×1017 cm−3.
