Abstract :
The photoluminescence of self-interstitials in silicon produced by ion implantation is investigated. A range of annealing temperatures have been used to follow the evolution of these defects. The effect on the formation of these defects in the presence of B and P dopants is considered. As expected, boron is found to reduce the W-line. Phosphorous also reduces the luminescence but to a lesser extent.
