ABSTRACTQuenched-in defects in cw laser irradiated silicon have been identified using deep level transient spectroscopy. Four among the five dominant defect states arise from transition metal impurities (iron, chromium) present in precipitates in the as-grown material and dispersed into the crystal upon heat treatment. Native defects are involved in the form of phosphorous-vacancy complexes, which account for the remaining level.

ABSTRACTDeep level defects in p/p+ epitaxial silicon were characterized by deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS). Two dominant deep level defects were found in all samples which have been identified with Fe and CrB pairs. A third deep level defect was found in most of the samples which has tentatively been identified with Ti. The concentrations of these traps were established in a large number of samples as a function of epitaxial growth condition and substrate oxygen level.

AbstractWe investigate the influence of Rh-doping on electrical properties of InP and InGaAs. Deep level transient spectroscopy carried out on Rh-doped as well as undoped reference samples reveals a single Rh-related deep level in both semiconductors. While a Rh-related electron trap in InGaAs is situated at EC-0.38eV a Rh-related hole trap is found to exist in InP approximately 0.73 eV above the valence band edge. The internal reference rule for 3d transition metal deep levels is found to be valid for these 4d transition metal levels: their energy is constant across the InGaAs/InP heterojunction. We conclude these levels to be the single acceptor states of Rh substitutionally incorporated on cation sites.

ABSTRACTKinetics of persistent photoconductivity, photoquenching, and thermal and optical recovery observed in low energy Ar+ bombarded on (100) GaAs surfaces have been investigated. Rate and transport equations for these processes were derived and simulated employing transport parameters, trap locations and densities determined by deep level transient spectroscopy. Excellent correlation was obtained between the results of preliminary simulation and the experimentally observed values. The exponential decay of persistent photoconductivity response curve was determined to be due to metastable electron traps with longer lifetime and is consistent with an earlier proposed model.

AbstractEpitaxial layers of 4H-SiC are grown on (0001) substrates inclined toward <1120> and <1100> directions. Defects in these films are characterized by deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) in order to clarify the dependence of concentrations and activation energies on substrate inclination. DLTS results show no such dependence on substrate inclination but show thickness dependence of the concentration.
