High-resolution infrared absorption and photoconductivity spectra of several S-and Se-related donor centers in silicon are presented. These include isolated, probably substitutional, impurities and impurity pairs, as well as more complex centers. The spectra of the isolated impurities are consistent with T~symmetry and those of impurity pairs with D3~symmetry. The binding energies of excited states are recalculated in accordance with effective-mass theory. The results agree better with experiments than previously published calculations. The spectra are discussed in detail with emphasis on valley-orbit splittings of excited states in Tq and D3q symmetry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
