“…6 From these results, it is suggested that at high Bi concentration, a Bi-donor atom located at the Pb site and a Bi-acceptor atom make a nearestneighbor or very near donor-acceptor (DA) pair, which does not cause effective ionic scattering nor form a deep level. Also, Bi impurities form deep levels with E d ϭ 0.06Ϫ0.08 eV, only at a relatively low Biconcentration region, i.e., x Bi Ͻ 0.2 at.%, or, for Te vapor pressure exceeding the optimum value for stoichiometry.…”
