Stimulated Emission and Laser Operation (cw, 77°K) Associated with Deep Isoelectronic Traps in Indirect Semiconductors

Abstract
We report stimulated emission associated with Zn-O-complex recombination transitions in GaP:Zn-O and with NN-pair lines in GaAs1xPx:N (x=0.56). Laser operation (cw, 77°K) characteristic of inhomogeneously broadened transitions is exhibited clearly by NN-pair lines in GaAsP and probably occurs for Zn-O pairs in GaP.
