Using infrared spectroscopy, local vibrational modes in GaP:Zn exposed to a remote hydrogen or deuterium plasma were observed. The modes at 2379.0 and 1729.4 cm[sup [minus]1] are assigned to hydrogen---phosphorus and deuterium---phosphorus bond-stretching modes of complexes adjacent to the zinc acceptors. The isotopic ratio [ital r]=[nu][sub [ital H]]/[nu][sub [ital D]]=1.3756 is very close to that of the zinc-hydrogen complex in InP ([ital r]=1.3744), which suggests that they have the same structure.
