Abstract: | The states of shallow acceptors in uniaxially deformed germanium are studied theoretically. A non-variational numerical computational method is developed for determining the energy and wave functions of localized states of holes in the acceptor field as well as the states of the continuous spectrum (including resonant impurity states). The dependence of the energy of the lower resonant state on strain is studied. It is found that this state is formed from the excited 4Γ 8 + state with a binding energy of 1.3 meV (in the absence of deformation) and not from the ground state. The results presented in this work may be useful in the study of the conditions for the generation of far IR radiation in deformed p-Ge, which involves optical transitions between resonant and localized acceptor states. |
