A knowledge of the electric field is essential for any further improvement of the program. A simple model involving EL2 levels in the metastable state is proposed to explain some measurements of electric field.11 pages. 9 postscript figures + 1 postscript preprint logo + 1 LaTeX file + 1 non-standard style file.
