    Phono-conduction spectroscopy of shallow states in semiconductors
    (1990) Lassmann, Kurt; Gienger, Martin; Groß, Peter
    Phonoconduction spectroscopy of shallow states in semiconductors by help of superconduction Al-junctions as phonon sources with high spectral resolution is a sensitive new technique with phonon frequencies well up in the Debye range. The large k-vector of the phonons involved opens new possibilities for the investigation of electron dynamics and states in semiconductors.

    Linear stark coupling to the ground state of effective mass acceptors
    (1989) Köpf, Andreas; Ambrosy, Anton; Lassmann, Kurt
    It is shown by dielectric resonance absorption at 24 GHz and by ultrasonic resonance spectroscopy between 5 and 10 GHz that linear coupling of the electric field to the ground state of effective mass acceptors in Si exists and has a distinct chemical shift from B to In.

    Ultrasonic spectroscopy of the acceptor ground state in cubic semiconductors
    (1980) Lassmann, Kurt; Zeile, Heinrich
    In the following we will discuss ultrasonic measurements on p-type semiconductors reflecting spontaneous and defect sensitive modifications of the acceptor ground state.

    Shallow traps correlated with deep impurities in silicon as obtained by phonon induced conductance
    (1986) Burger, Wilfried; Lassmann, Kurt; Holm, Claus; Wagner, Peter
    At low temperatures shallow neutral donors and acceptors in silicon can bind an extra carrier to form the so-called D- and A+ centers. With the method of phonon-induced electrical conductivity (PIC) we find the same threshold energies for the detachment of these carriers associated with the shallow impurities P and B, as have been obtained previously by FIR measurements. This shows that the detachment is by a one-phonon process. We find that there is no central cell correction for the binding to the deeper acceptors Al and Ga, whereas for In+ the binding energy is as large as 5,8 meV. We interprete this dependence on acceptor species as another example of the shallow-deep instability of the binding energy with the variation of the central cell potential.

    One-phonon ionization of neutral donors in germanium
    (1989) Gienger, Martin; Groß, Peter; Lassmann, Kurt
    Here we show by phonon spectroscopy with superconducting tunnelling junctions that one-phonon excitations from the ground state to the conduction band (CB) are measurable as phonon induced conductivity (PIC) changes in the special case of donors in Ge. For the conductivity thresholds we find somewhat smaller binding energies than evaluated from optical measurements whereas for the 1s-singlet to 1s-triplet ground state splitting as seen by elastic phonon scattering we obtain the optical values.

    Investigation of A+-states in Si and Ge by phonon-induced conduction under uniaxial stress
    (1993) Groß, Peter; Lassmann, Kurt
    By the analysis of the stress dependence of phonon induced conductivity (PIC) with superconducting Al-tunneling junctions as phonon generators we have now found strong evidence for a split ground state in the cases Si:Ga+, Si:Al+ and Ge:Zn+.

    Phonon spectroscopy of low energy vibrations of interstitial oxygen in germanium
    (1993) Lassmann, Kurt; Gienger, Martin; Glaser, Markus
    We can summarize our results as follows: Whereas the band of lowest lying mechanical states of interstitial oxygen in Si can be approximated by a two-dimensional oscillator perturbed by a central potential, the corresponding states in Ge can be well understood by a bindered rotator with a large central potential opposing a bending oscillation and with a sixfold modulation of the rotation due to the influence of the 6 neighbours to the Ge-O-Ge molecule

    Phonon-induced electrical conductance in semiconductors
    (1986) Lassmann, Kurt; Burger, Wilfried
    The bath of thermal phonons is a well-known source of impedance to electronic conduction in solids. Turning the tables, a change in electronic conductance may be used for phonon detection, as will be discussed in the following.

    Depopulation effects in the phonoconduction response of A+ -states in silicon and germanium
    (1990) Groß, Peter; Gienger, Martin; Lassmann, Kurt
    We show here that deviations from these assumptions are effective in the experiment and responsible in particular for the observed illumination dependence of the phonoconduction signal. The phonon spectrum of an Al - STJ at bias V = eU > 2ΔAl consists of a continuum with a sharp threshold at Ώm = V - 2ΔAl. In the differentiated spectrum Ώm becomes the most prominent bias-tunable feature, namely the quasimonochromatic line of phonon spectroscopy used for the approximate analysis of sharp phonon scattering resonances such as the OI line of Fig. 1a (which shows inversion of the center due to strong scattering).
