Abstract

An investigation is made of the de conductivity and the Hall effect in heavily dislocated Si crystals doped with boron (1013 cm−3) and phosphorus (2 × 1014 cm−3). In such crystals two levels are shown to exist, namely, donor-acceptor level with E1 = (0.42 ± 0.03) eV above the valence band and acceptor level with E2 = (0.43 ± 0.03) eV below the conduction band. Both E1- and E2-levels are assumed to be due to dislocations and to correspond to states of electrons localized in cores of dislocations with edge components.
