Abstract

The results of studying the electrical properties and isochronous annealing of p-ZnSnAs2 irradiated with H+ ions (energy E = 5 MeV, dose D = 2 × 1016 cm−2) are reported. The limiting electrical characteristics of irradiated material (the Hall coefficient R H (D)lim ≈ −4 × 103 cm3 C−1, conductivity σ (D)lim ≈ 2.9 × 10−2 Ω−1 cm−1, and the Fermi level position F lim ≈ 0.58 eV above the valence-band top at 300 K) are determined. The energy position of the “neutral” point for the ZnSnAs2 compound is calculated.
