Abstract
Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy studies of Czochralski grown n-type (phosphorous doped) silicon, implanted with
low doses of 5.6 MeV Si ions at room temperature and later annealed are presented. A prominent acceptor type defect is
observed in all annealed samples which is located at 0.32 eV below the conduction band edge, EC and has a capture cross
section of - IO-” cm*. We attribute this defect to be a hydrogen related complex, presumably, a defect formed with the
interaction of divacancy centres and dissolved hydrogen present in the as-grown silicon. Thermal stability of irradiation
induced point defects has also been studied. It is observed that the divacancy (V,) and vacancy oxygen (VO) centres
produced after ion implantation disappear at lower temperatures compared to electron irradiated, high purity float zone (FZ)
samples. This is mainly attributed to the fact that MeV ion implantation results in the formation of a non-uniform defect
distribution and hence enhances diffusion of point defects until they are annihilated through reactions with traps in the
implanted material e.g., interstitial oxygen atoms, substitutional carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms and/or localised disordered
regions.
