Abstract
A deep-level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) technique is reported for determining the capture cross-section activation energy directly. Conventionally, the capture activation energy is obtained from the temperature dependence of the capture cross section. Capture cross-section measurement is often very doubtful due to many intrinsic errors and is more critical for nonexponential capture kinetics. The essence of this technique is to use an emission pulse to allow the defects to emit electrons and the transient signal from capture process due to a large capture barrier was analyzed, in contrast with the emission signal in conventional DLTS. This technique has been applied for determining the capture barrier for silicon-related DX centers in $Al_xGa_{1-x}As$ for different AlAs mole fractions.
