Abstract
The interaction between dislocations and oxygen atoms in silicon has been s tudied. The effect of immobilization of dislocations by the segregation of oxygen to the dislocation core (dislocation locking) has been investigated for different oxygen concentrations and annealing conditions. It has been r evealed that oxygen locking of dislocations shows three different regimes o f behaviour. A numerical model for the dislocation locking process of oxyge n atoms has been presented and used to interpret the experimental results. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science S.A.
