Electron-beam-induced current (EBIC) and cathodoluminescence (CL) have been applied to investigate the electrical and optical behaviors of dislocations in SrTiO3. The electrical recombination activity and defect energy levels of dislocations have been deduced from the temperature-dependent EBIC measurement. Dislocations contributed to resistive switching were clarified by bias-dependent EBIC. The distribution of oxygen vacancies around dislocations has been obtained by CL mapping. The correlation between switching, dislocation and oxygen vacancies was discussed.

AbstractAnnealing of hydrogenated p-type silicon with a reverse bias applied to a Schottky diode allows us to precisely determine the dissociation frequency vA of shallow acceptor-hydrogen pairs (AH with A = B, Al, Ga, and In). The temperature dependent values of vA satisfy the relation vA = voAexp (-EA/kT), with voB = 2.8 . 1014 s-1, voAl = 3.1 . 1013 s-1, VoGa = 6.9 . 1013 s-1, and voIn = 8.4 · 1013 s-1. The dissociation energies EA depend only weakly on the acceptors: EB = (1.28±0.03)eV, EAl = (1.44±0.02) eV, EGa = (1.40±0.03) eV, and EIn = (1.42±0.05) eV. The dissociation frequency of BH pairs shifts to a lower value when H is replaced by the deuterium isotope.

AbstractTemperature-dependent (80 … 300 K) measurements of dislocation recombination activity by the electron-beam-induced-current (EBIC) technique are reported. Controlled Cu contamination (ppb to ppm range), chemomechanical polishing and hydrogenation treatments were applied to alter dislocation properties. Increasing Cu level is found not only to increase the electrical activity of misfit dislocations in SiGe/Si structures at 300 K, but also to change its dependence on temperature. At low contamination, shallow centres control dislocation activity while deep centres are characteristic at higher Cu levels. Heavy Cu contamination results in very strong recombination activity which is attributed to precipitates. Chemomechanical polishing has an effect which is analogous to medium Cu contamination. Hydrogenation was found to passivate recombination activity at 300 K, but did not show pronounced effects on activity at low temperature.

We present new experimental data on light-induced degradation due to the boron oxygen defect in compensatedn-type silicon. We are the first to show that both defect components known fromp-type silicon are formed in compensatedn-type silicon. A parameterization of the injection dependent recombination activity of the slower formed defect component is established. The formation kinetics of both defect components are studied and modeled under different conditions. It is found that the same rate factors as inp-type can describe the degradation, if the actual hole concentration under illumination is taken into account. The regeneration process known to permanently deactivate boron oxygen defects inp-type is successfully applied ton-type material and the illumination stability of the regenerated state is tested and proven.

ABSTRACTThe effects of the implantation parameters (dose and energy) on the Arsenic redistribution and outdiffusion rate in (100) p-type silicon, after 7–12 s Rapid Thermal Annealing in the 1100–1200°C temperature range have been investigated. Four doses ranging from 2×1014 to l×1016 cm−2, and As+ energies between 70 and 170 keV, have been studied. The experimental diffusion profiles obtained from the SIMS measurements, in complement with the RBS results, were modelled using the one dimensional Fick's equation with semi-infinite boundary conditions, using a concentration and temperature dependent diffusion coefficient D(C, T). The As diffusivity was classically attributed to As+V0, As+V−, and As+V − pairs with the related diffusion coefficients taken from the literature. A relatively good description of the As redistribution was obtained without introducing any transient or SPE effects.
