Abstract

Photo-Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy detection of a new level with thermal activation energy 0.22 eV for DX centers in silicon doped $Al_xGa_{1-x}As$ (x=0.26) is reported. The observation of this level directly proves the negative-U properties of DX centers and the existence of the metastable state $DX^o$ which is also confirmed by a transient photoconductivity experiment.
