摘要
Deep-Level Transient Spectroscopy (DLTS) measurements were carried out on silicon p+nn+ diodes before and after irradiation with fast neutrons at room temperature with fluences 5.5 × 1011 and 1.0 × 1012 n/cm2. It was found out, that all preexisting defects decreased their amplitudes during irradiation, while only one defect, identified as a single-charged divacancy, increased in amplitude. An interpretation is proposed in terms of the cluster model, and the applicability of the DLTS is discussed.
