LOCAL VIBRATIONAL MODES OF THE COMPLEX CONSISTING OF DIVACANCY AND TWO OXYGEN ATOMS IN SILICON
Abstract
The processes of formation and annealing of vacancy–oxygen-related Vn Om complexes in Czochralski-grown silicon crystals irradiated with fast electrons have been investigated by means of low-temperature IR Fourier spectroscopy. A number of arguments are presented confirming the identification of the vibrational absorption band at 829.3 cm–1 as arising from the V2 O2 defect.
