摘要
The Si-K and Si-L-2,L-3 edges of the electron energy-loss near-edge (ELVES) spectra of a model of an extended inactive defect in Si with no dangling bonds were calculated using an ab-initio method which includes the electron-hole interaction. In this method, atom-by-atom excitation is possible. The calculated results are discussed in the context of the subtle structural differences in the local atomic environment. Comparison of the results with measured data shows satisfactory agreement. The method can be applied to other more complicated defective systems such as grain boundaries and interfaces for effective materials characterization.
