Deep impurity levels and Ti solubilities were determined by means of deep-level transient spectroscopy. It was found that the Ti formed multi-levels; with an acceptor level of Ec - 0.09eV, a donor level of Ec - 0.27eV, and a double-donor level of Ev + 0.28eV. The solubilities, as a function of reciprocal temperature, were well-represented by straight lines with an associated activation energy of 3.8eV. The deep-level transient spectroscopy data indicated that the diffusivity (table 89) could be described by:

D(cm2/s) = 0.12 exp[-2.05(eV)/kT]
