Abstract

Resonant Raman scattering is used to study the nature of the recently discovered nitrogen-induced level (Formula presented) located in the conduction band of (Formula presented) Our data demonstrate that the (Formula presented) state is derived from the nitrogen-induced (Formula presented)-(Formula presented) mixing of the bulk GaAs states and that it is not an isolated nitrogen impurity level. A broadening of the GaAs-like longitudinal-optical phonon line and an enhancement of the transverse-optical phonon line is observed near resonance, which is interpreted as being due to resonance with strongly localized states.
