35. This label is consistent with a previous proposal made for a consistent scheme of labeling occurring ESR-revealed point defects at semiconductor/ insulator interfaces, starting from historically first initiated labeling [A. Stesmans, Semicond. Sci. Technol. 4, 1000 (1989) and Ref.], and in anticipation of potentially new emerging members as research advances. Depending on preference, one may prefer either the label GPb1 or GePb1 for the current center. 10.1088/0268-1242/4/12/005
