摘要
A deep level of E(c)-0.46 eV (E1) was observed in commercially available Si epitaxial layers. The deep level decreased gradually at room temperature and eventually vanished completely 8 months after growth, and new levels, E(c)-0.08 eV, E(c)-0.10 eV, E(c)-0.14 eV and E(c)-0.21 eV, were observed. After annealing at 750 degrees C, E1 level appeared again and all of the new levels disappeared. All levels, including E1, disappeared upon high-temperature annealing (>1000 degrees C) in a O-2 ambient. It was confirmed that these deep levels were due to contamination by Fe in epitaxial layer.
