- 1. Phys. Rev. B 77, 195204 (2008) , “Identification of antisite carbon split-interstitial defects in 4H-SiC”, J. W. Steeds, W. SullivanA rich variety of optical centers with high energy local vibrational modes has been found in electron-irradiated 4H-SiC in both the as-irradiated and annealed states. These energies have been measured and the annealing dependence of the optical centers has been investigated by low-temperature... (Read more)
- 2. Phys. Rev. B 75, 115205 (2007) , “Stability of I3 complexes in III-V compound semiconductors by tight-binding molecular dynamics”, G. Zollo and F. GalaIntrinsic interstitials in GaAs are known to have a large formation energy that makes their concentration almost negligible in as-grown materials. However, interstitials must be explicitly considered in implanted GaAs where collision cascades, induced by the energetic ions, produce a large amount of... (Read more)

JanzénPositron lifetime spectroscopy was used to study native vacancy defects in semi-insulating silicon carbide. The material is shown to contain (i) vacancy clusters consisting of four to five missing atoms and (ii) Si-vacancy-related negatively charged defects. The total open volume bound to the...

Lett. 98, 206406 (2007) , “Role of Intermolecular Coupling in the Photophysics of Disordered Organic Semiconductors: Aggregate Emission in Regioregular Polythiophene”, Jenny Clark, Carlos Silva, Richard H. Friend, and Frank C. SpanoWe address the role of excitonic coupling on the nature of photoexcitations in the conjugated polymer regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene). By means of temperature-dependent absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopy, we show that optical emission is overwhelmingly dominated by weakly coupled H... (Read more)
- 5. Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 115503 (2007) , “Oxygen Vacancy Clustering and Electron Localization in Oxygen-Deficient SrTiO3: LDA+U Study”, Do Duc Cuong, Bora Lee, Kyeong Mi Choi, Hyo-Shin Ahn, Seungwu Han, and Jaichan LeeWe find, using a local density approximation +Hubbard U method, that oxygen vacancies tend to cluster in a linear way in SrTiO3, a prototypical perovskite oxide, accompanied by strong electron localization at the 3d state of the nearby Ti transition metal ion. The vacancy... (Read more)

Lett. 89, 012505 (2006) , “Diffusion and clustering of substitutional Mn in (Ga,Mn)As”, Hannes Raebiger, Maria Ganchenkova, and Juhani von BoehmThe Ga vacancy mediated microstructure evolution of (Ga,Mn)As during growth and postgrowth annealing is studied using a multiscale approach. The migration barriers for the Ga vacancies and substitutional Mn together with their interactions are calculated using first principles, and temporal... (Read more)

WatanabeLow-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) has been used to investigate void growth during thermal decomposition of 1–2-nm-thick silicon oxide on Si substrates. Real-time LEEM observations clarify that the void size (square root of the void area) grows linearly with time. The temperature dependence... (Read more)

Phys. 100, 113513 (2006) , “Theoretical study of nitrogen-doping effects on void formation processes in silicon crystal growth”, Hiroyuki Kageshima, Akihito Taguchi, and Kazumi WadaNitrogen-doping effects in silicon crystal growth have been theoretically studied using thermodynamical simulation based on first-principles calculation results. The results show that the densities of various complexes are determined in the balance between the enthalpy effects and the entropy... (Read more)
- 9. J. Appl. Phys. 100, 034309 (2006) , “Critical size for defects in nanostructured materials”, Jagdish NarayanThis paper addresses some of the fundamental issues and critical advantages in reducing the grain size/feature size to the nanoscale regime. We find that as the grain size or feature size is reduced, there is a critical size below which the defect content can be reduced virtually to zero. This... (Read more)

Phys. 99, 073511 (2006) , “Effects of temperature and flux on oxygen bubble formation in Li borosilicate glass under electron beam irradiation”, Nadège Ollier, Giancarlo Rizza, Bruno Boizot, and Guillaume PetiteOxygen bubble formation and evolution under a 300 keV electron beam are analyzed in a Li borosilicate glass under different irradiation conditions: temperature, flux, and dose. Oxygen bubbles are observed to form in a delimited flux and temperature region with a threshold requirement. This region... (Read more)

DesvignesIn He implantation induced cavities highly contaminated with metals (Au, Ni, Pt) we found that, when no three-dimensional structure is observed, the shape of the cavities can be strongly modified depending on the nature of the metal and on its trapped quantity. The equilibrium shape of cavities is... (Read more)

MironovA model of arsenic clustering in silicon is proposed and analyzed. The main feature of the proposed model is the assumption that negatively charged arsenic complexes play a dominant role in the clustering process. To confirm this assumption, electron density and concentration of impurity atoms... (Read more)

PantelidesThe measured activation energies for oxide growth rates at the initial and late stages of oxidation of Si are 2 and 1.2 eV, respectively. These values imply that oxidation can proceed at temperatures much smaller than the 800 °C normally used to obtain devices with exceptionally smooth... (Read more)

CorbettThe stress effect in an EPR study is first treated rigorously in terms of the piezospectroscopic tensor, taking account of the local symmetry of a defect. It is found that the degree of alignment (n?/n?) provides incisive information on the structure of a defect; in general, a... (Read more)
