Abstract

A review of the occurence, nature, structure and stability of the H complexes in III-V compounds is presented, mainly based on electrical and spectroscopical data. The importance of the problem of formation and dissociation of the complexes is pointed out and the use of H complexes in actual III-V devices is described.
