Abstract
Silicon p+n junction detectors irradiated with fast neutron fluences up to 10(13) n/cm2 have been measured using the thermally stimulated current (TSC) technique. Defect complexes revealed in irradiated silicon by this experimental analysis are presented. A new peak, which can be explained using a cluster model, is observed when a forward filling voltage is applied to the samples during the measurement. A brief report on the changes in electrical parameters (leakage current and effective free charged carrier concentration) after irradiation is included.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
