Bound-exciton luminescence associated with cobalt acceptors in vapor-grown GaAs

Abstract
A new emission line due to a recombination of an exciton bound to a cobalt acceptor has been observed at 1.489 eV in vapor‐grown GaAs. Detailed Zeeman analysis of the emission revealed that the corresponding center has a tetrahedral symmetry in the crystal. Relevant splitting factors are ge=−0.47(electron), K=0.61(hole), and L=−0.05(hole).
