Widths of excited impurity levels in phosphorus-doped silicon
Keyword(s):
A model is presented to explain the breadths of the excited impurity levels of phosphorus-doped silicon at zero temperature. The model assumes that the widths of optical transitions involving absorption by the neutral donor and so-called two-electron luminescence from an exciton bound to the neutral donor are the sums of level widths of the initial and final states. The excited s states' level widths are accounted for by assuming that they are governed by the lifetime of the levels for two-phonon decay to the ground state. This decay is brought about by the interaction of the bound electron with the phosphorus ion.
