Electron and nuclear spin dynamics in plastically deformed silicon crystals enriched in isotope 29Si

Paramagnetic defects of a new type with a concentration of about 10 15 cm −3 are shown to be generated during the plastic deformation of isotope-rich (72%, 76% 29 Si) silicon crystals at a temperature of 950°C. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of these defects are anisotropic and ha...

Description
Summary:Paramagnetic defects of a new type with a concentration of about 10 15 cm −3 are shown to be generated during the plastic deformation of isotope-rich (72%, 76% 29 Si) silicon crystals at a temperature of 950°C. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of these defects are anisotropic and have a significant width (up to 1 kOe). The nonuniform broadening of the EPR lines is caused by the variation of the internal magnetic field in correlated defect clusters. The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of the deformed crystals consist of Pake doublets split by nuclear spin-spin interaction. The broadening of the NMR spectra is caused by nuclear dipole-dipole relaxation.
