Low dislocation-density samples were diffused with Ga at 700 to 1100C, and the resultant profiles were determined by using secondary ion mass spectrometry or neutron activation methods. The results could be described by:

D (cm2/s) = 5.0 x 10-3 exp[-2.70(eV)/kT]

Diffusion was suggested to occur via a neutral monovacancy mechanism.
