摘要: The infrared absorption in $n$-type InP was studied as a function of free-carrier concentration from 3.5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{17}$ to \ensuremath{\sim} ${10}^{19}$ ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}3}$ the spectral range 10 \ensuremath{\mu} fundamental edge. Burstein shifted edge, normal intraband absorption, and interband were analyzed. edge shifts higher energy with increasing but only by 47% expected shift. separation between central-conduction-band minimum next conduction valleys found be 0.90 \ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{} 0.02 eV.
