  • Abstract
    A wide variety of deep-level recombination centers have been observed at large concentrations in commercially available red GaAsP light-emitting diode p-n junctions. Similar defects have not been observed in GaP diodes. The characteristics, probable cause, and possible effect on luminescence efficiency of these deep-level defect centers are described.
