Abstract
Convergent-beam electron diffraction (CBED) is used to study lattice s train around plate-like oxygen precipitates in Czochralski (CZ)-grown silicon. Local lattice strain determined from higher-order Laue zone ( HOLZ) patterns shows that compressive and tensile stress fields exist near the precipitates. The spatial variation of local lattice strain a nd lattice rotation is visualized in a defocused large angle CBED disc , or a convergent-beam imaging (CBIM) disc.
