摘要
The properties of dislocations in Si. GaAs and GaN are reviewed. Although, theoretical investigations favour a reconstruction eliminating, or reducing, the electrical activity in each case, with a consequent increase in the barrier for dislocation motion, there are problems in reconciling these results with experiment. Tt may be that the influence of impurities or point defects cannot be overlooked. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
