Abstract
The distribution of hydrogen in Si and SiC following high-temperature proto n irradiation (T-irr=20-700 degrees C) is studied by secondary-ion mass spe ctrometry. It is shown that the hydrogen concentration profile in SiC depen ds weakly on irradiation temperature. In Si appreciable alteration of the c oncentration profile is observed already at T(irr)similar or equal to 300 d egrees C, and the profile completely loses its concentration gradient at T( irr)similar or equal to 700 degrees C.
