Even for low Ge content (/x=2.4%), we already observe strongly broadened lines for the intra-centre transitions, whereas the onset of the photo-ionisation stays at approximately the same energy, in contrast to expectations from a linear extrapolation of the impurity level from values of the pure compounds or from deformation potentials. We thus conclude that the /S centres seen are located in the neighbourhood of significantly lower Ge content suggesting that Ge clusters may exist with much higher Ge content which, however, cannot be resolved in the photo-conductivity spectra. This finding, together with the observed line broadening demonstrates strong, non-statistical fluctuations in the alloy distribution.

Early proposed for the MR detection, the electron spin resonance technique was used for this investigation. It was found that the anomalous MR was observed in these materials in the temperature range of the classical (nonhopping) motion and in the magnetic fields not higher than some hundred Oersteds. Some peculiarities of the classical MR were observed and explained too.

As a result, the antiferromagnetic spin glass structure is created. The main manifestations of the phenomenon are the fall of the free (unpaired) spin density, the free spin increase with temperature, and characteristic antiferromagnetic g-factor shift with the electron density in the pretransition range.

The latter are caused by the interaction of the spins localized on impurity atoms due to the spin-Peierls transition. In Ge:As, this effect manifests itself in the concentration range n = n = 3 × 1017–3.7 × 1017 cm−3.

The procedure was developed to operate sufficiently smooth changes of the spin density, by proton irradiated.

This effect is manifested in the temperature dependences of the impurity magnetic susceptibility obtained by integration of the spin resonance absorption line. These dependences show that the spin density falls in the medium temperature range (10-100 K) and grows at low temperatures. The effect is confirmed by the specific temperature features of the g-factor and inverse magnetic susceptibility. As the relative content of a compensating impurity (gallium) is made lower than 0.7, the transition temperature begins to decrease and, at a degree of compensation < 0.3, falls outside the temperature range under study (i.e., below 2 K).
