Author Correction: Optical Absorption Exhibits Pseudo-Direct Band Gap of Wurtzite Gallium Phosphide.

abstract：:The push for a semiconductor-based quantum information technology has renewed interest in the spin states and optical transitions of shallow donors in silicon, including the donor bound exciton transitions in the near-infrared and the Rydberg, or hydrogenic, transitions in the mid-infrared. The deepest group V donor i...
