Steady-state photoconductivity measurements in the temperature range 100–300 K on amorphous Ge2Sb2Te5 thin film prepared by dc sputtering are analyzed. The dark conductivity is thermally activated with a single activation energy that allocates the position of the Fermi level approximately in the middle of the energy gap relative to the valance band edge. The temperature dependence of the photoconductivity ensures the presence of a maximum normally observed in chalcogenides with low- and high-temperature slopes, which predict the location of discrete sets of localized states (recombination levels) in the gap. The presence of these defect states close to the valence and conduction band edges leaves the quasi Fermi level shifts in a continuous distribution of gap states at high temperatures, as evidenced from the γ values of the lux–ampere characteristics.

Based on the density functional pseudopotential method, the electronic structures and the optical properties for Ti doped ZnS are investigated in detail. The calculation results indicate that the doping of Ti widens the band gap of ZnS and the Fermi level shifts upward into the conduction band. The impurity elements form new highly localized impurity energy level at the bottom of the conduction band near the Fermi level.,.Meanwhile, blue shifts are revealed in both the imaginary part of dielectric function and the absorption spectra corresponding to the change of band gaps.

ABSTRACTModulated primary photocurrent (MPC) studies on pin structures show spatial variations of the gap state distribution across the i-layer that can be correlated with Fermi level shifts by band bending towards interfaces. These results as well as reverse bias annealing effects are explained in terms of the defect pool model. It is demonstrated that MPC measurements are basically identical to TOF measurements with clear advantages in the post-transit time regime.

AbstractPhotoreflectance has been used to characterize the etch-induced damage in GaAs processed in an Ar/Cl2 plasma generated by an electron-cyclotron resonance (ECR) source. We show that the damage is localized to the surface and that it is most influenced by the RF power, with little effect from the microwave power. The Fermi-level is observed to be unchanged in n-GaAs and remains near midgap, while for p-GaAs, the Fermi level shifts from near the valence band to midgap. Etch-induced anisite defects are proposed as a possible source of the damage.
