Abstract
Samples of n type GaAs implanted with 1015Zn+/cm2 at room temperature were irradiated with a ruby laser of pulse length 0.8 ms. For samples coated with Si3N4 a laser energy of 1.5¿2.5 J/cm2 produced electrical activity of 40¿50% of the implanted dose. Peak hole concentrations up to about 7 à 1019 cm¿3 were measured. Uncoated samples irradiated with similar laser energies were not electrically active.
