ISIS Neutron and Muon Data

Direct spectroscopy of muon donor and acceptor levels in silicon carbide

Data collected on the
HIFI instrument
at the ISIS facility

Abstract: We will perform direct laser spectroscopy to measure the ionisation energy of muon defect levels in a semiconductor - specifically silicon carbide. We should see a broad absorption band with a sharp cutoff at low energy. Time domain data, particularly in low transverse fields, will confirm which muon sites or charge states are involved. We will follow the ionisation edge and therefore defect depth as a function of temperature.
