- 1. Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 165506 (2001) , “Defect Generation by Hydrogen at the Si-SiO2 Interfaces”, S. N. Rashkeev, D. M. Fleetwood, R. D. Schrimpf, and S. T. PantelidesHydrogen is known to passivate Si dangling bonds at the Si-SiO 2 interface, but the subsequent arrival of H + at the interface causes depassivation of Si-H bonds. Here we report first-principles density functional calculations, showing that, contrary to conventional... (Read more)

PantelidesWe report first-principles calculations showing that protons in the vicinity of a SiSiO2 interface can behave in two different ways. At an abrupt interface without suboxide bonds (SiSi bonds at the oxide side of the interface) H+ does not become trapped but migrates... (Read more)
- 3. Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 245901 (2004) , “Ab Initio Calculations to Model Anomalous Fluorine Behavior”, Milan Diebel, Scott T. Dunhammplanted fluorine is observed to behave unusually in silicon, manifesting apparent uphill diffusion and reducing diffusion and enhancing activation of boron. In order to investigate fluorine behavior, we calculate the energy of fluorine defect structures in the framework of density functional theory. In addition to identifying the ground-state configuration and diffusion migration barrier of a single fluorine atom in silicon, a set of energetically favorable fluorine defect structures were found (FnVm). The decoration of vacancies and dangling silicon bonds by fluorine suggests that fluorine accumulates in vacancy-rich regions, which explains the fluorine redistribution behavior reported experimentally.

Ohshima, H. Itoh, A. GaliCarbon vacancies (VC) are typical intrinsic defects in silicon carbides (SiC) and so far have been observed only in the form of positively charged states in p-type or semi-insulating SiC. Here, we present electron-paramagnetic-resonance (EPR) and photoinduced EPR (photo-EPR)... (Read more)

BockstedteThe metastability of vacancies was theoretically predicted for several compound semiconductors alongside their transformation into the antisite-vacancy pair counterpart; however, no experiment to date has unambiguously confirmed the existence of antisite-vacancy pairs. Using electron paramagnetic resonance and first principles calculations we identify the SI5 center as the carbon antisite-vacancy pair in the negative charge state (CSiVC-) in 4H-SiC. We suggest that this defect is a strong carrier-compensating center in n-type or high-purity semi-insulating SiC.

- 6. Phys. Rev. B 73, 033204 (2006) , “Electrical characterization of metastable carbon clusters in SiC: A theoretical study”, A. Gali, N. T. Son, E. JanznFirst-principles calculations carried out in 3C- and 4H-SiC show that small metastable carbon clusters can be created in irradiated SiC. The metastable carbon clusters possess occupation levels in the p-type as well as in the n-type 4H-SiC. Depending on the... (Read more)

In addition to perfect graphite (0001), three types of surface defects have been considered: a surface vacancy (hole), a pyridinelike defect comprising three... (Read more)

Tsukada, K. Hamada, S. Fujieda, and Y. MochizukiThe variable retention time phenomenon has recently been highlighted as an important issue in dynamic random access memory (DRAM) technology. Based on electrically detected magnetic resonance and simulation studies, we suggest that a single Si vacancy-oxygen complex defect is responsible for this... (Read more)
