摘要
Regarding the electron spin resonance work (Stesmans and Afanas'ev (1996) J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 8 L505) reporting on a newly resolved P-b interface defect generation mechanism operative during postoxidation annealing in inert ambient above similar to 640 degrees C, Stathis (J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 9 3297) criticizes that no explanation has been offered for this finding vis-a-vis apparently deviating previous work. Additionally, it is insinuated that previous crucial P-b results have been obtained only after postoxidation annealing. We show these comments to be based on the overlooking of plain experimental facts.
