Abstract

Diffusion of selenium and tellurium in silicon has been investigated in the temperature range 1000°C to 1310°C by sheet conductivity. For Si∶SeD 0= 0.3±0.1 cm2/s andh=2.6±0.1 eV, and for Si∶TeD 0=0.9±0.3 cm2/s and h=3.3±0.1eV have been obtained. The surface concentrations for both dopants were of the order of 5 × 1013 to 6×1016cm−3. The Hall coefficient leads to an energy level of 300±15meV for selenium and 200±20meV for tellurium.
