Abstract

The high resolution Laplace deep level transient spectroscopy (LDLTS) was used to study the defects of silicon materials and devices. This technique was used to detect the defects in hydrogenated transition metals, implant damage, effects of the local environment on impurities in SiGe and the use of uniaxial stress with LDLTS to determine defect symmetry. With this technology, by carefully designed experimental system and the transient averaging, transients can be separated with more than an order of magnitude better resolution than DLTS.
