- 10. Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 145501 (2006) , “Identification of the Carbon Antisite-Vacancy Pair in 4H-SiC”, T. Umeda, N. T. Son, J. Isoya, E. Janzn, T. Ohshima, N. Morishita, H. Itoh, A. Gali, M. 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.
