On the other side, CL and other luminescence techniques have been applied (2) to study the defect distribution in semiconductor wafers. In some cases PA can be useful to interpret results obtained by CL-SEM (3). In this work PA and CL have been used to investigate the distribution and nature of defects in GaP : S, GaAs : Te and undoped SI GaAs wafers. CL intensity, dislocation density and vacancy concentration profiles have been measured. The latter has been obtained by positron lifetime measurements. %~
