A high-resolution Laplace-transform deep level transient spectroscopy was used to study electron emission from the DX centres related to group IV and VI donor elements in AlGaAs. This provides the experimental evidence that substitutional-interstitial atom motion is responsible for DX behaviour and for the associated metastability effects.
