We show that positron trapping at negative As vacancies revealed under illumination in bulk semi-insulating GaAs correlates with a form of near-band-edge absorption known as reverse contrast (RC). We conclude that it is the ionization of As vacancies to their negative charge state that gives rise to RC absorption.
