Recombination Luminescence in Irradiated Silicon: Effects of Thermal Annealing and Lithium Impurity.

Abstract

Silicon crystals which have been irradiated with high-energy electrons at room temperature show two strong luminescence bands in the near infrared, when observed at low temperature. Both bands have a sharp zero-phonon peak followed by a series of broad phonon-assisted peaks. The effects of isochronal annealing and lithium impurity on the luminescence bands has been determined.
