22. 2 / V s] differs from the early calibration of Thomas by a factor of near 2, similar to recent results of Seager and Myers (Ref. 16).
23. Uncertainties of a factor of 2 in the calibration of IR intensities are not uncommon. See, M. Stavola, in Identification of Defects in Semiconductors, edited by M. Stavola (Academic, Boston, 1999), p. 153.
