1 Non-traditional methods of material properties and defect parameters measurement Juozas Vaitkus on behalf of a few Vilnius groups Vilnius University, Lithuania
2 Outline: Definition of aims Photoconductivity kinetics Free carrier diffusion and capture process measurement Photo-Hall and magnetoresistance Photo-ionization spectroscopy
3 A few general words: Profile of our group self-formed 40 years ago as: measurement of properties of high resistivity and wide bandgap materials. These materials have many different type of local levels and, usually, different non-uniformities. Therefore it was developed or modified a few of methods for exclusion or activation of a definite level or non-uniformity. The modification of methods was oriented on: Exclusion of an origins of nonlinearities; Avoiding an influence of contacts; Creation of scenario that allows to understand the process.
4 Free carrier kinetics
5 Direct measurement of trapping and recombination: photoconductivity decay (short pulse excitation) 1 τ M =1/γ nm (M-m) E C E M E R 2 τ N =1/γ nm Ν CM Θ I = 1/[γ nm Ν CM + γ nm (M-m)] Θ II = 1/[γ nm Ν CM ] 4 E V τ 3 τ R =1/γ nr (R-r) 4 τ P =1/γ pr r asymp τ 1 + M m 0 = R 2 ( N + ) CM n 0 Measurement of this dependence: E.Gaubas talk!
6 Limitations and possibilities Excitation pulse duration: ~10 ps, ~10 ns and longer pulses or mosulated dc light. Generation of carriers direct band-band or extrinsic (via deep levels or from/to deep level) Problems appears in high quality samples due to influence of the recombination at the surface (if the diffusion is significant)
7 Transient gratings Free carriers change the refractive index of semiconductor, therefore if the excitation is by the light interference pattern, then semiconductor become as a periodical grating. The incident or probe beam pulse will diffract in it.
8 Transient gratings - contactless, non-destructive semiconductor homogeneity control parameters (D, S, τ and etc.) measurement method I λ sample I -1 I I 0 Λ I +1 Also allows to indicate the internal electric field related to impurities if the optical symmetry allows the effect.

21 Photo-Hall effect If the sample has micro/nano nonuniformities, then the signal is more complex dependent on parameters. (That should be in a case of change of conductivity type) It changes an effective active volume therefore changes the effective Hallmobility (a lot of models, quite complicated expressions)
22 Photo-ionization spectrum Measurement of photoconductivity (possible effect also: quenching of photoconductivity, if additional excitation is used), photo-voltage, short circuit current. Possible regime of constant signal: varying of excitation. It excludes different non-linearities. Determination of defect optical ionization energy.

24 Conclusions: 1. It exists additional (time consuming) methods for carrier capture processes and defect parameters measurement. 2. It is most important to have the samples, that are interesting for supplier. Thank You for Your attention!
