Recognition and Imaging of Point Defect Diffusion, Recombination, and Reaction During Growth of Czochralski-Silicon Crystals

Defect Engineering During Czochralski Crystal Growth and Silicon Wafer Manufacturing

Single crystal silicon has played the fundamental role in electronic industry since the second half of the 20th century and still remains the most widely used material. Electronic devices and integrated circuits are fabricated on single-crystal silicon wafers which are produced from silicon crystals grown primarily by the Czochralski (CZ) technique. Various defects are formed in the growing cry...

Parameters for point-defect diffusion and recombination

Point-defect kinetics are important for understanding and modeling dopant diffusion in silicon. This paper describes models for point-defect transport and recombination used in SUPREM-IV, and does extensive fitting for the model parameters. The experimental data used are from experiments on oxidation-enhanced diffusion (OED). Interstitial traps are shown to be critical for consistent agreement ...

COMPUTATIONAL ENUMERATION OF POINT DEFECT CLUSTERS IN DOUBLE- LATTICE CRYSTALS

The cluster representation matrices have already been successfully used to enumerate close-packed vacancy clusters in all single-lattice crystals [I, 2]. Point defect clusters in double-lattice crystals may have identical geometry but are distinct due to unique atomic postions enclosing them. The method of representation matrices is extended to make it applicable to represent and enumerate ...

lexical decomposition awareness and its effect on delayed receptive and productive recognition and recall of vocabulary knowledge of morphologically complex english words: an iranian efl context

abstract lexical knowledge of complex english words is an important part of language skills and crucial for fluent language use (nation, 2001). the present study, thus, was an attempt to assess the role of morphological decomposition awareness as a vocabulary learning strategy on learners’ productive and receptive recall and recognition of complex english words. so 90 sophomores (female and ma...
