The process of defect formation in GaAs under Ar-plasma etching is investigated by using DLTS. Defects introduced are indentified with the components of Frenkel pairs possessing high mobility even at room temperature. Their penetration to the depth of some μm below the surface is discussed in the frame of the diffusion process.
