ABSTRACTChalcogen (S,Se,Te) -doped silicon samples were hydrogen neutralized by different passivation techniques. The electrically active double-donor densities were determined by DLTS measurements. DLTS spectra reveal that both donor levels recover simultaneously. The activation energy for re-activation of neutralized isolated and pure pair sulphur double-donors is Ea(So/+) = 2,13 ± 0,15 eV and Ea(S2o/+) = 2,1 ± 0,15 eV, respectively.

The basic processes are described occurring in the case of the diffusion of carbon monoxide CO and silicon monoxide SiO through a layer of single-crystal silicon carbide SiC. This problem arises when a single-crystal SiC layer is grown by the method of atom substitution due to the chemical reaction of a crystalline silicon substrate with CO gas. The reaction products are the epitaxial layer of SiC and the gas SiO. It has been shown that CO and SiO molecules decompose in SiC crystals. Oxygen atoms migrate through interstitials in the [110] direction only with an activation energy of 2.6 eV. The migration of Si and C atoms occurs by the vacancy mechanism in the corresponding sublattices with activation energies of 3.6 eV and 3.9 eV, respectively, and also in the [110] direction only.

The formation of buried oxide structures in single crystal silicon by high-dose oxygen ion implantation has received considerable attention recently for applications in advanced electronic device fabrication. This process is performed in a vacuum, and under the proper implantation conditions results in a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure with a top single crystal silicon layer on an amorphous silicon dioxide layer. The top Si layer has the same orientation as the silicon substrate. The quality of the outermost portion of the Si top layer is important in device fabrication since it either can be used directly to build devices, or epitaxial Si may be grown on this layer. Therefore, careful characterization of the results of the ion implantation process is essential.
