摘要
We present the results of low-temperature Hall measurements on 1-MeV-electron-irradiated In-doped Si. It is observed that the concentrations of the acceptor In-X, Nx, and the compensating donor ND increase immediately after irradiation with fluences ranging from 2×1015 to 1016 e/cm2. It is suggested that ND increases after irradiation due to the creation of divacancies, interstitial indium, and interstitial indium-substitutional indium pairs, where the interstitial indium atoms occupy the tetrahedral site. To explain the increase in Nx we propose three possible models for In-X in terms of indium-vacancy pairs, indium interstitials in the split configuration, or indium interstitials in the bond-centered configuration.
