Abstract

The recombination luminescence involving the A-center, a Cd vacancy paired with a nearest neighbour donor, was investigated in CdTe doped with group VII and III elements. Depending on the type of donor doping, distinct differences in the A-center acceptor binding energies and electron phonon couplings are resolved. Optically detected magnetic resonance shows that the A-center behaves as a shallow effective masstype acceptor consiscent with its small binding energy.
