摘要
An investigation of the possibilities to measure electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) with electrical detection (EDEPR) by measuring the microwave or radio frequency-induced change of the photoconductivity of various bulk Si samples containing shallow and deep level defects is presented. It was found that an electron-hole recombination mechanism via a donor (D0)- acceptor (A0) pair explains the observations and may be necessary if EDEPR is to be detected. A qualitative expression for the EDEPR signal intensity is presented. EDEPR offers sensitivity several orders of magnitude better than normal EPR. As few as 107 shallow P donors could be observed. In addition, EDEPR can be measured with spatial resolution allowing defect mapping. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
