Spin-lattice relaxation rate, 1/T_s, of donor electrons in phosphorus and boron doped silicon was studied at liquid helium temperature as a function of the degree of compensation K=N_A/N_D (N_A, N_D: acceptor and donor concentrations). Donor concentrations ranged from approximately 5×10^<15>/cc to 3x10^<16>/cc and the degree of compensation was varied up to 0.8. It was found that 1/T_s increased first with increasing K, reached a maximum at around K=0.5〜0.6 depending on N_D, and then decreased with a further increase in K. If a power law is assumed for the dependence on temperature T, the relaxation rate goes as T^n, n increasing with K but being independent of N_D. The above experimental results are discussed assuming the hopping of donor electrons. A comprison is made with Sugihara's theory, which gave a rather satisfactory explanation of the experimental results.
