Intrinsic Defects in Semiconductors
In all previous consideration of crystal structure and crystal growth, for simplicity it has been assumed that the silicon crystal lattice is entirely free of defects. Of course, in reality, this cannot be true since at any temperature greater than absolute zero, no crystal of finite size can be absolutely perfect. Indeed, there are a number of different types of defects that can exist within t...
متن کاملStoichiometry driven impurity configurations in compound semiconductors.
Precise stoichiometry and departures therefrom in the composition of the tetrahedrally coordinated compound semiconductors allow impurity incorporation in more than one configuration. Ultrahigh resolution infrared spectroscopy of CdTe:O at low temperatures reveals a unique sharp doublet associated with the local vibrational modes of OTe in a (OTe-VCd) complex with nearest neighbor Cd vacancy VC...
متن کاملStoichiometry and doping in large gap compound semiconductors
2014 Current theoretical models on self-compensation in large gap semiconductors assume that intrinsic stoichiometric defects dominate and explain electrical properties quite satisfactorily without any contribution from impurities. Some recent results show on the contrary that impurities are in fact dominant at least at room temperature. The paper, starting from one particular material (ZnTe), ...
متن کاملDefects activated photoluminescence in two-dimensional semiconductors: interplay between bound, charged, and free excitons
Point defects in semiconductors can trap free charge carriers and localize excitons. The interaction between these defects and charge carriers becomes stronger at reduced dimensionalities, and is expected to greatly influence physical properties of the hosting material. We investigated effects of anion vacancies in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides as two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor...
متن کاملPositron Annihilation at Dislocations and Related Point Defects in Semiconductors
Dislocations act in semiconductors as combined positron traps, consisting of a shallow precursor state, which is related to regular parts of the dislocation line, and bound vacancy-like defects. The motion of dislocations during plastic deformation generates a high number of point defects. The clustering of vacancies to stable voids is regarded as a primary process of the jog dragging mechanism...
