Abstract
Based on the theorem proved earlier for absolute Coulomb potentials in perfect crystals, it is shown that electron delocalization in ions results in a negative potential shift. As a result, the concentration prevalence of negative ion vacancies is predicted as a common thermodynamic property of AB type structures. Being compensatory with respect to anion potentials, this effect is responsible for n-type conductivity in intrinsic gallium arsenide and related systems and for a tendency toward superionic instability.
