Abstract :
The methods of isothermal and isochronal heat treatments have been used for further studies of the reverse annealing effect of the effective impurity concentration. These measurements lead to an improved reliability of a second order model, which was already proposed in earlier works. Using only three parameters this model can predict the time dependence of the effective impurity concentration in a wide range of neutron fluences and temperature
