Weinvestigated the effect ofthe addition of Sb atoms on the propenies of defect states of pure amorphous selenium. The trap levels have been studied by a combination of conventional thermally stimulated depolarization current spectroscopy and time-of-flight measurements. Taken together, these experiments show that Sb introduces a new Set of shallow uaps for electrons at energies 0 2 2 , 0 3 4 and 0.45 eV below the conduction band edge, in addition to that existing in pure selenium. At the same time, progressive addition of antimony markedly enhances the deep trapping of holes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
