Abstract

The dependence of the DX centers thermal emission rates on the electric field has been measured by Isothermal Transient Spectroscopy (ITS) and differential ITS (DITS) techniques. These techniques allow us to achieve a more accurate analysis of these defects than the DLTS, which ability for the study of DX centers is discussed. This dependence has been found to be mainly due to a Poole-Frenkel effect and is the cause of the non-exponentiality of the thermal emission transients.
