Abstract

It is shown that the usual charge-balance analysis of temperature-dependent carrier-concentration data cannot distinguish between the donor and acceptor behavior of a center which is emitting carriers to a particular band, even though the statistics are different in the two cases. Other data, such as mobility or analytical results are needed to make the distinction.
