Abstract :
Irradiating a GaAs
0.60P
0.40laser with radiation from a GaAs laser demonstrates conclusively that the delay-inducing traps are deep centers which act as saturable absorbers. These centers can be filled optically and then remain in the nonabsorbing state for milliseconds. Their concentration is greater than

cm
-3.
