Abstract—In semiconductors, high-frequency conductivity is caused by polarization reversal of the collective
states of a pair of impurity atoms under the action of the random electric fields of all the impurities. A Coulomb
correlation which appreciably increases the conductivity is established as a result of the statistical distribution
of the particles over four levels of the diatomic system. The relaxation absorption and the permittivity of the
entire pair system are calculated allowing for these statistics. © 2000 MAIK “Nauka/Interperiodica”.
