Abstract

<p> Acceptors present in undoped <em> p </em> &hyphen;type conducting GaAs have been studied with photoluminescence, temperature&hyphen;dependent Hall measurements, deep level transient spectroscopy, and spark source mass spectrometry. It is shown that <em> p </em> &hyphen;type conduction is due to presence of the shallow acceptor C <sub> As </sub> and the cation antisite double acceptor Ga <sub> As </sub> . The first and second ionization energies determined for Ga <sub> As </sub> are 77 and 230 meV from the valence&hyphen;band edge.</p>
