Abstract
The influence of ion implantation of Ar in defect generation in Si/SiO 2 structures is examined by the application of an electroluminescence technique. The nature of the electroluminescence spectra is examined a nd bands at 1.9, 2.7 and 4.3 eV are identified. Each band is related t o different intrinsic defects in the oxide. Structural analysis of the irradiated SiO2 films, performed with i.r. spectroscopy, points to at omic displacements and broken Si-O bonds as the origin of the damage i nduced by the irradiation.
