- 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)

ChoykeAb initio supercell calculations of the binding energies predict complex formation between aluminum and carbon interstitials in SiC. In high-energy implanted SiC aluminum acceptor can form very stable complexes with two carbon interstitials. We also show that carbon vacancy can be attached to... (Read more)

FantonThe annealing behavior of defects observed in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and photoluminescence (PL) is discussed. We consider the divacancy (the P6/P7 EPR centers) and a previously unreported EPR center that we suggest is a VC-VSi-VC... (Read more)

Steeds, S. Furkert, J. M. Hayes, W. Sullivan, N. G. WrightRecent ab initio calculations [Mattausch et al., Phys. Rev. B 70, 235211 (2004)] of carbon clusters in SiC reveal a possible connection between the tricarbon antisite (C3)Si and the U photoluminescence center in 6H-SiC [Evans et al., Phys. Rev. B 66, 35204...

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)

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)

The interstitial-vacancy recombination, the diffusion of vacancies, and interstitials to defect sinks (e.g., surfaces or dislocations) as well as the... (Read more)

B 69, 045322 (2004) , “Carbon antisite clusters in SiC: A possible pathway to the DII center”, Alexander Mattausch, Michel Bockstedte, and Oleg PankratovThe photoluminescence center DII is a persistent intrinsic defect which is common in all SiC polytypes. Its fingerprints are the characteristic phonon replicas in luminescence spectra. We perform ab initio calculations of vibrational spectra for various defect complexes and... (Read more)

DeákUsing the self-consistent-charge density-functional-based tight-binding (SCC-DFTB) method, we have investigated the migration of vacancies at high temperatures, taking into account the entropy contribution to the Gibbs free energy.
