    Notes: The diffusion length of minority carriers in n-type floating-zone Si samples is obtained with the electron-beam-induced current technique in planar configuration. The charge collection current data as a function of the beam-junction distance are analyzed on the basis of the "moment method'' developed by Donolato [C. Donolato, Solid-State Electron. 28, 1143 (1985)], which is based on the calculation of the variance of the derivative of the current profile. With respect to other methods reported in literature, this has the advantage that it requires no assumptions on the surface recombination velocity and thus provides a diffusion length value free from its influence. The data are also analyzed with the asymptotic method, which requires conventional assumptions on the surface recombination velocity. The comparison between the results has allowed us to test the capabilities of the above-mentioned method. Particular attention is paid to the injection level and its influence on bulk and surface properties.

    Notes: The diffusion length and surface recombination velocity of the minority carriers are determined from electron beam induced current (EBIC) profiles on a semiconductor containing a barrier perpendicular to the scanned surface. The evaluation of both the parameters has been obtained by the procedure called "of the first moments,'' due to Donolato [C. Donolato, Appl. Phys. Lett. 43, 120 (1983)], which is based on the calculation of the first moment about the origin of two induced current profiles. This analysis, based on an exact integral property of the EBIC scans, allows evaluation of the diffusion length and the surface recombination without fitting the experimental profiles. In addition, it is easy to handle and can also be readily applied to real devices.

    Notes: The defective states induced in floating zone Si by the heavy diffusion of dopants have been investigated by means of the electron beam-induced current method. By measuring the minority carrier diffusion length with the first order moment method, and by directly imaging the defects, their electrical activity has been analyzed. The diffused samples have subsequently been dry oxidized, so that the evolution of the electrical and morphological properties of the induced defects could be followed. Two sets of samples, one diffused with B and the other with B and Al, have been investigated in order to study the effects of the presence of Al. Significant improvements in the diffusion length have been observed in samples where Al had been codiffused, thus providing indication for the role played by Al on the electrical activity of bulk defective states.

    Notes: This article concerns the existence of a double-junction effect in proton-irradiated silicon p+-ν-n+ (pin) diodes demonstrated by surface potential and optical-beam-induced current (OBIC) investigations. By increasing the diode biasing, the junctions existing at both ends in the irradiated devices move towards each other up to join, hence, causing a full depletion of the diodes. Due to the inhomogeneity of the electric field, however, the charge-carrier collection is strongly dependent on the position. The extent of the diode depletion layers at both ends and the shape of the electric field within the p+-ν-n+ diodes are determined as a function of the bias applied. Three-dimensional photocurrent maps obtained by OBIC profiles allow for imaging the double junction. The deep level analysis evidences the presence of irradiation-induced defects, which are responsible for the double-junction effect. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The distribution in liquid-encapsulated-Czochralski (LEC) GaAs:Te wafers of point and complex defects has been investigated together with their influence on the minority-carrier diffusion length L. Three wafers with different Te-doping concentration (2.2×1017, 4.5×1017, and 1.5×1018 cm−3) have been studied by means of the electron-beam-induced-current (EBIC) mode of scanning electron microscopy and of the surface photovoltage (SPV) method. The morphology and electrical activity of the defects observed across each wafer have been correlated to the formation and distribution of deep electronic levels, which are significantly affected by the tellurium concentration. The diffusion length has been found to be mainly controlled by deep levels associated with dislocations. EBIC localized measurements of L and of the net ionized free-carrier concentration provide evidence for the influence of Te concentration on impurity segregation at complex defects.

    Notes: We have investigated highly doped GaAs:Te at different doping concentrations ((approximately-greater-than)1017 cm−3) to assess the presence of the EL2 trap. We have utilized both capacitance and current transient spectroscopy techniques. The crucial parameter for the detection of EL2 is the relative position of the electron quasi-Fermi level in the depletion region. The observed shift of the EL2 apparent activation energy with increasing doping concentration is also discussed. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The optical activity of Er-doped silicon is related to the presence of defects which enhance the typical radiative transition at 0.8 eV but whose nature and properties are still largely unknown. We have investigated the deep levels present in Er-doped liquid phase epitaxy silicon to identify the traps possibly related to the luminescence. Among the observed levels, two minority carrier traps labeled E2 (EC−0.20 eV) and E3 (EC−0.39 eV), and one majority carrier trap labeled H1 (Ev+0.32 eV) are good candidates for the material optical activity. The onset of luminescence occurs after a thermal treatment and is accompanied by a high space charge density localization at the epilayer-substrate interface. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The deep levels present in semiconducting CdTe and semi-insulating CdTe:Cl and Cd0.8Zn0.2Te have been investigated by means of cathodoluminescence, deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS), photo-induced current transient spectroscopy, and photo-DLTS. The latter two methods, which can be applied to semi-insulating materials, allow to characterize the deep traps located up to midgap and can determine whether they are hole or electron traps. We have identified 12 different traps, some common to all the investigated samples, some peculiar to one of them. A comparison of the results obtained from the various materials is given and the status of defect models is reviewed. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The properties peculiar to high resistivity CdTe:Cl are of great interest because of its application as a radiation detector. The compensation process responsible for the materials semi-insulating character implies the presence in the lattice of impurities and defects which have not yet been thoroughly characterized. The use of CdTe:Cl as a detector exposes the material to high fluxes of ionizing radiation which alter the crystal stoichiometry and affect the resulting electrical and optical properties, but few and scattered experimental data are available about radiation effects on this compound. In this work we have carried out an extensive investigation of the effects of γ irradiation on CdTe:Cl by photoinduced current transient spectroscopy analyses. We have identified the deep levels with activation energies up to midgap and we have followed their evolution with increasing irradiation doses up to 50 kGy, the dose which totally degrades the material detecting properties. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: In this study, 69 episodic cluster headache (CH) patients (40 in the active phase, 29 in remission period) underwent a complete TCD examination in order to verify the relationship between cerebral blood velocities (CBVs) and the clinical profile of the disease. Fifteen patients were examined during both phases, while 7 were monitored during a spontaneous attack. Sixty-three healthy sex and age-matched controls were also studied. We measured widespread, asymmetric CBV activation during the active phase, bilaterally in the anterior circulation and also in the posterior circulation. A relative reduction of CBV on the anterior cerebral artery pain side, also during remission, suggests a relationship between local vasodilation and the autonomic symptoms ipsilateral to pain during CH attacks.
