Defects in silicon nanowires [PDF]

Applied Physics Letters, 2006
Defects in silicon nanowires have been investigated using the electron spin resonance (ESR) method. The ESR signals consist of three features: a strong resonance at g=2.00249, a weak line at g=2.00048, and a broad feature at g=2.00541. From the saturation behavior and oxidation-related and temperature dependence analysis, we ascribe that the strong ...
