Metastability of electrical properties of dislocations in silicon

  • 1. USSR Academy of Sciences, Chernogolovka (USSR). Institute of Problems of Microelectronics Technology and Superpure Materials

Description

The energy spectrum of plastically deformed silicon was observed to depend on cooling conditions. A conclusion has been drawn that centers exhibiting charge-state-controlled metastability are associated with dislocations. The effect of light at liquid nitrogen temperature on the transition between different metastable states has been studied. (author) 5 refs., 2 figs
