Abstract
The electrical properties of p-ZnSiAs2 irradiated with protons (energy E = 5 MeV, dose D ≤ 2 × 1017 cm−2) are studied. Experimental data and results of calculations are used to estimate the limiting position of the Fermi level in the band gap of the irradiated material (at the midgap E g/2). The thermal stability of radiation defects in the temperature range from 20 to 610°C was analyzed.
