Abstract
The excitation spectrum of the 0.11-eV Mn acceptor in GaAs has been thoroughly investigated by uniaxial stress and Zeeman fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The results give strong evidence for the ${3\mathrm{d}}^{5}$ +shallow hole model for the ${\mathrm{Mn}}^{0}$ center. The deformation potentials as well as the g values determined for the hole are in close agreement with those previously reported for the ${1\mathrm{S}}_{3\mathrm{/}2}$(${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Gamma}}}_{8}$) state for shallow acceptors in GaAs. All experimental results are in accordance with a J=1 ground-state level derived from exchange coupling of the shallow ${1\mathrm{S}}_{3\mathrm{/}2}$(${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Gamma}}}_{8}$) hole and the S=5/2 ${\mathrm{Mn}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$ core. A splitting between J=2 and J=1 levels in the range from 9 to 12 meV is inferred and is considerably larger than the 2--3 meV splitting previously suggested
