Positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) spectroscopy,photo-induced current transient spectroscopy (PICTS) and thermally stimulated current (TSC) have been employed to study the formation of compensation defects and their evolvement under iron phosphide (IP) ambience or pure phosphide (PP) ambience. In the formation of IP SI-InP, the diffusion of Fe atoms suppresses the formation of some open-volume defects. As to PP SI-InP, VInH4 complexes dissociate into acceptor vacancies VInHn(n-3)(n=0,1,2,3), which compensate residual donor type defects and make the sample semi-insulating. Electron irradiation-induced deep level defects have been studied by TSC in PP and IP SI-InP, respectively. In contrast to a high concentration of irradiation-induced defects in as-grown and PP annealed InP, IP SI-InP has a very low concentration of defects.

The strain-rate dependence of vacancy cluster sizes in hydrogen-charged martensitic steel AISI410 under tensile deformation was investigated using positron lifetime spectroscopy. The vacancy-cluster sizes in hydrogen-charged samples tended to increase with decreasing strain rates during the tensile deformations. The vacancy-cluster sizes significantly correlated to the tensile elongations to fracture. It was revealed that the presence of large-sized vacancy-clusters can cause the degradation of mechanical properties and followed by brittle fracture.

Results of molecular motion studies carried out in two liquid crystal forming compounds n-p-cyano-p-hexyloxybiphenyl (M18) and n-p-ethoxybenzylidene-p-butylaniline (EBBA) using positron lifetime spectroscopy (PLS) are presented. Temperature dependent positron lifetime measurements have been performed in each compound during the heating cycle of samples prepared by either quenching or slow cooling from the respective liquid crystalline phase of the compounds. In both the compounds, behaviors of the quenched and slow cooled samples are found to be different. The material in the quenched sample, unlike the slow-cooled sample, exhibits strong temperature dependence before it undergoes a glass transition. In each case, the temperature dependence of o-Ps pick-off lifetime in the quenched sample shows broad peaks at various characteristic temperatures. These peaks have been attributed to various intra- and inter-molecular motions associated with these compounds. The characteristic frequencies of some of the modes observed in the present work agree well with the literature reported values obtained from FIR and Raman studies. The present study demonstrates the usefulness of PLS in the study of molecular motions.
