- 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)

Yazyev, Ivano Tavernelli, Ursula Rothlisberger, and Lothar HelmUnderstanding radiation-induced defect formation in carbon materials is crucial for nuclear technology and for the manufacturing of nanostructures with desired properties. Using first-principles molecular dynamics, we perform a systematic study of the nonequilibrium processes of radiation damage in... (Read more)

Lopez and Vincenzo FiorentiniBased on ab initio density-functional energetics for saturated (n=2m+2) fluorine-vacancy clusters FnVm for m up to 4, the authors set up a model showing that (a) fluorine-vacancy (FV) aggregates in Si can form in any...

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)
- 5. Phys. Rev. B 71, 115204 (2005) , “Electron Spin Resonance Study of Paramagnetic Centers in Neutron-Irradiated Heat-Treated Silicon”, D. Pierreux and A. StesmansElectron spin resonance (ESR) was used to study neutron-induced defects in silicon as functions of anneal temperature Tan. For Tan below 200 °C, the ESR response is dominated by the Si-P3 and Si-P6 spectra, as observed before. At Tan=200 ... (Read more)

LawWe show direct evidence, obtained by positron annihilation spectroscopy, for the complexing of fluorine with vacancies in silicon. Both float zone and Czochralski silicon wafers were implanted with 30 keV fluorine ions to a fluence of 2×1014 ions/cm2, and studied in the... (Read more)

B 70, 235211 (2004) , “Structure and vibrational spectra of carbon clusters in SiC”, Alexander Mattausch, Michel Bockstedte, and Oleg PankratovThe electronic, structural, and vibrational properties of small carbon interstitial and antisite clusters are investigated by ab initio methods in 3C- and 4H-SiC. The defects possess sizable dissociation energies and may be formed via condensation of carbon interstitials, e.g.,... (Read more)

BechstedtWe present ab initio calculations for internal interfaces in Si and SiC. Density-functional calculations within the local-density approximation and the pseudopotential-plane-wave approach are performed to understand the effect of such two-dimensional defects on the electronic properties. We... (Read more)

B 69, 235202 (2004) , “Ab initio study of the annealing of vacancies and interstitials in cubic SiC: Vacancy-interstitial recombination and aggregation of carbon interstitials”, Michel Bockstedte, Alexander Mattausch, and Oleg PankratovThe annealing kinetics of mobile intrinsic defects in cubic SiC is investigated by an ab initio method based on density-functional theory. The interstitial-vacancy recombination, the diffusion of vacancies, and interstitials to defect sinks (e.g., surfaces or dislocations) as well as the... (Read more)
- 10. 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.
