Abstract:
In this thesis point defects in semiconductors are studied by electronic structure calculations. Results are presented for the stability and equilibrium concentrations of native defects in GaP, InP, InAs, and InSb, for the entire range of doping conditions and stoichiometry. The native defects are also studied on the (110) surfaces of InP, InAs, and InSb. Comparing the relative stability at the surface and in the bulk, it is concluded that the defects have a tendency to migrate to the surface. It is found that the cation vacancy is not stable, but decomposes into an anion antisite-anion vacanc

Abstract:
Defects usually have a very large influence on the semiconductor material properties and hence on fabricated electronic devices. The nature and properties of defects in semiconducting materials can be investigated by applying electrical characterization techniques such as thermal admittance spectroscopy (TAS), deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) and high resolution Laplace-DLTS measurements. This dissertation presents the electrical characterisation of two different wide bandgap semiconducting materials (polycrystalline diamond and GaN) which have both recently attracted a great deal of a

This thesis presents the electrical characterisation of defects in novel group IV semiconducting materials: semiconducting diamond and silicon germanium (SiGe) virtual substrates.

Current-Voltage (I-V) and Capacitance-Voltage (C-V) measurements were carried out to study the electrical properties of both the diamond and SiGe Schottky diodes.

Abstract:
DLTS, ODLTS and DLOS have been used to characterise the main deep level trapping centres in some II-VI semiconductors; these were single crystal CdS, (ZnCd)S, CdSe, CdTe and ZnS, and polycrystalline CdS films. Undoped, single crystal CdS contained four electron traps as detected by DLTS, at 0.29eV, 0.41eV, 0.61eV and 0.74eV below the conduction band (CB). The first two were observed in all samples and were due to native defects. The two states of highest energy were found only in material that had been annealed in S or Cd vapours. The 0.61ev level could be photoinduced by illumination at photo

This work presents a study of the character and distribution of structural defects in (00l)CdTe buffer layers grown on GaAs substrates by metal organic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE). These are of importance as hybrid substrates for the growth of Cd(_x)Hg(1-x)Te (CMT), a prominent infrared detector material. The 14.5% mismatch between CdTe and GaAs leads to a high-density of dislocations at the CdTe/GaAs interface, and threading through the layer. The presence of linear and planar defects is detrimental to the performance of CMT devices and it is desirable to reduce the density of dislocations t

Abstract:
Positron studies of defects in thin films and semiconductors are reviewed. The results obtained from experimental studies of Doppler broadening of annihilation radiation (DBAR) from variable energies are presented. Normalisation methods for the DBAR parameters S and W have been developed, allowing for direct comparisons of the results for different samples taken over long periods of time. The evaluation of the P:V parameter, the peak-to-valley ratio in a full annihilation spectrum, has been improved via a correction method that produced a fourfold increase in sensitivity to o-Ps annihilation.

Abstract:
The alloying of two or more semiconducting compounds is a powerful means of tailoring the properties of semiconductor devices, since material parameters generally display a continuous shift with composition. For the same reason, observing the characteristics of a defect across a range of alloys is a useful way of gaining infonnation on the defect's microscopic structure. In this work, Schottky diodes are employed to study lattice defects, both as-grown and created by irradiation, in the alloys AlxGal-~ (O~x~O.27) and InxGal_~ (O~x~O.18), grown by the Metal~rganic Chemical Vapour-phase Depositi
