Muons are particles with a spin of ½ that can be implanted into a wide range of condensed
matter materials to act as a local probe of the surrounding atomic environment …

Hydrogen interactions with imperfections in crystalline metals and semiconductors are
reviewed. Emphasis is given to mechanistic experiments and theoretical advances …

Hydrogen is, in principle, the simplest impurity in semiconductor materials. It is a common
constituent of many chemicals and gases used in the growth and processing of …

The behavior of hydrogen in crystalline silicon is examined with state-of-the-art theoretical
techniques, based on the pseudopotential-density-functional method in a supercell …

Hyperfine parameters obtained from experimental techniques such as electron
paramagnetic resonance contain a wealth of information about defects in semiconductors …

Muons are unstable elementary particles that are found in space, which can also be
produced in particle accelerators to an intensity a billion times greater than that occurring …

This paper first describes the quantitative determination of the static and dynamic properties
of the locally stable states of monatomic hydrogen dissolved in crystalline silicon: H+, H 0 …

Hydrogen is a common impurity in all semiconductors. Although it is sometimes deliberately
introduced, hydrogen often penetrates into the crystal during device processing. It interacts …

▪ Abstract Hydrogen strongly affects the properties of electronic materials. Interstitial
monatomic hydrogen is always electrically active and usually counteracts the prevailing …

The nature of hydrogen bonding and diffusion in crystalline Si was investigated using an ab
initio self-consistent pseudopotential method. The relative energies of interstitial atomic …
