Abstract
In germanium, Te is a double donor. Te, when capturing one electron, is still repulsive for holes, and has no influence on the recombination lifetime of electrons in p-type Ge. In accordance with what one should expect, measurements with collimated beams of ¿-rays, show that Te is a preferential electron trap.
