Formation of complexes of impurity Mn atoms with impurity atoms of group VI elements (S, Se, Te) in the silicon crystal lattice has been studied. It has been experimentally found that formation of electrically neutral molecules with an ionic-covalent bond between Mn atoms and group VI elements takes place, which possibly leads to formation of new Si2BVI++Mn binary unit cells in the silicon crystal lattice. It has been shown that in the samples Si<S, Mn>, Si<Se, Mn> and Si<Te, Mn>, an intense complex formation occurs at the temperatures 1100, 820 and 650°C, respectively.

Compared to perfect crystal lattice, typical edge dislocation structure has been modeled by quantum chemistry simulation in order to analyze the influence of crystal structure defects on removal process in atmospheric pressure plasma polishing (APPP). The Partial density of states (PDOS), number of states, average number of bonding electrons and energy have been calculated and analyzed further for these models. The analysis results reveal that silicon crystal with edge dislocation can be etched more easily than that of perfect crystal lattice. It is also found that the removal rate of sample with higher dislocation density is larger than that of lower dislocation density in the same experiment conditions. Thus, theoretical simulation demonstrates that structure dislocation is helpful for raising the etching rate, which accords well with testifying experiments results. But maybe structure dislocation could deteriorate surface roughness to some extent in initial stage of machining, as the dislocation structure is usually etched unevenly, although this is just a transition period.

Abstract Optomechanical resonators were fabricated on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate that had been implanted with phosphorus donors. The resonators’ mechanical and optical properties were then measured (at 6 kelvin and room temperature) before and after the substrate was annealed. All measured resonators survived the annealing and their mechanical linewidths decreased while their optical and mechanical frequencies increased. This is consistent with crystal lattice damage from the ion implantation causing the optical and mechanical properties to degrade and then subsequently being repaired by the annealing. We explain these effects qualitatively with changes in the silicon crystal lattice structure. We also report on some unexplained features in the pre-anneal samples. In addition, we report partial fabrication of optomechanical resonators with neon ion milling.

The behaviors of isovalent impurities doped in Czochralski (CZ) silicon crystal have attracted considerable attention in recent years. In this article, a review concerning recent processes in the study about germanium in CZ silicon is presented. The disturbance of silicon crystal lattice in and the influence on the mechanical strength due to germanium doping is described. Oxygen related donors, oxygen precipitation and voids defects in germanium doped Czochralski (GCZ) silicon has been demonstrated in detail. In addition, the denuded zone formation and the internal gettering technology of GCZ silicon is also discussed.

ABSTRACTDiamond thin films were grown on a scratched silicon crystal surface by a novel CVD technique. The substrate was exposed to a bombardment of sputtered carbon atoms from a graphite target in a helium DC glow discharge, and subsequently exposed to atomic hydrogen generated by a hot tungsten filament. The resulting diamond films were characterized by Raman spectroscopy and SEM. Deposited film quality, and growth rate are presented as a function of carbon flux, and atomic hydrogen flux. The observed increase in growth rate with atomic hydrogen indicates that a surface reaction mechanism may be responsible for growth. The saturation of the utilization of carbon confirms that the diamond growth is probably a surface reaction. Based on this work we propose that the growth of diamond films in the sequential CVD reactor is most likely governed by surface reactions, and that the necessity of gas phase precursors can be precluded.
