For any lattice temperature T<or approximately=10<sup>3</sup>K and different charge states Z of the centre the authors describe the dependences of non-radiative multiphonon carrier capture coefficients C<sup>Z</sup>(T; E) on the carrier energy E by products of the familiar Sommerfeld factors s<sup>Z</sup>(E) with corresponding energy-loss factors C<sup>0</sup>(T; E). As the carrier energy E is increased these 'neutral parts' C<sup>0</sup>(T; E) of capture coefficients decrease or increase (exponentially) in the alternative regimes of small and large lattice relaxation. Their maximum enhancements C<sub>max</sub><sup>0</sup>/C<sup>0</sup>(0;0), which can be produced in the latter regime, at low lattice temperatures, are shown to be approximately exp(S(1+ gamma ln gamma - gamma )) (approaching e<sup>S</sup> in the gamma to 0 limit) where S represents the Huang-Rhys factor and gamma the ratio between thermal depth and lattice relaxation energy. For values of S of the order of 10 this 'enhanced hot-carrier capture due to large lattice relaxation' effect can thus amount to several orders of magnitude and should hence be of considerable importance for interpretations of corresponding hot-carrier capture data. |
