Quenching of Donor-Acceptor Pair Radiation at High Bxcitation Level

It is well known from experimental work (MAEDA; THOMAS, GERSHENZEN, HOPFIELD) that saturation of the donor-acceptor pair (DAP) recombination channel in suitable doped semiconductors at sufficiently high excitation level occurs. A t very strong excitation of a highly doped and compensated (Ga, AI)As layer, however, a quenching of the DAP recombination intensity has been observed (ZEHE, H m E L ) .

As reason for this behaviour several mechanisms can be considered. In this note
