Carbon-hydrogen complex in GaP

Abstract

The carbon-hydrogen complex in GaP is evidenced by the observation of the 12C-H, 13C-H, and 12C-D stretching local modes of vibration. Experiments performed with D2O enriched wet boric oxide encapsulant clearly shows that a source of hydrogen contamination during liquid-encapsulation Czochralski growth is the water contained in the encapsulant.
