Abstract

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and transmission electron microscopy have been used to obtain information on the local structure of deuterium in single-crystal silicon, both for deuterated, phosphorous-doped Si that contains platelet-structured defects and for deuterated boron-doped silicon. In both cases, the NMR spectrum consists of two components, a narrow doublet and a central, unsplit line. The doublet arises from D bonded to Si with the Si-D bond along the <111> directions. The central line, which contains more D than does the doublet, is ascribed primarily to molecular D2 that resides in regions of the crystal where translation and tumbling are inhibited and possibly to some D in weak Si-D bonds.
