  • An examination of point defects and atomic diffusion in silicon

    Creator:
    Monson, Tyrus K.
    Abstract:
    The self-interstitial defect is commonly regarded as important in regulating diffusion in silicon. A review of the literature reveals that the scientific bases for invoking the self-interstitial defect are weak, while an alternate defect, the vacancy cluster, has been largely ignored. One argument which has been used to establish dominance...
