Our results of optical absorption, electronic transport and deep level transient spectroscopy measurements performed on n-type GaAs1-xPx (x ≈ 0.2) strongly suggest that using both an enlarged-gap material (compared to GaAs) and hydrostatic pressure we can push down the acceptor level of the distorted configuration of the EL2 defect, (EL2*)–/0, sufficiently low into the gap that the distorted configuration of the EL2 defect, EL2*, becomes stabilized.
