Для контролируемого формирования кислородных преципитатов в кристаллах Si в технологических процессах необходимы методы измерения концентрации комплексов VnOm. Целью настоящей работы было нахождение калибровочных коэффициентов для определения концентрации вакансионно-кислородных дефектов в кремнии из интенсивностей полос инфракрасного (ИК) поглощения, связанных с локальными колебательными модами (ЛКМ) этих комплексов. С использованием электрических (эффект Холла) и оптических (ИК поглощение) измерений проведено комплексное исследование вакансионно-кислородных центров в кристаллах кремния, облученных электронами с энергией 6 МэВ. На основе анализа полученных данных установлены значения калибровочных коэффициентов для определения концентрации комплекса вакансия-кислород (VO) в кремнии методом инфракрасного поглощения: для измерений при комнатной температуре (RT) – NVO = 8,5 · 1016 · αVO-RT см–3, в случае низкотемпературных (LT, Т ≡ 10 К) измерений – N VO = 3,5 · 1016 · αVO-LT см–3, где αVO-RT(LT) – коэффициенты поглощения в максимумах полос ЛКМ комплекса VO в спектрах, измеренных при соответствующей температуре. Установлены также калибровочные коэффициенты для определения концентраций других вакансионно-кислородных комплексов VnOm (VO2, VO3, VO4, V2O и V3O) и кислородного димера (O2) из анализа спектров поглощения измеренных при комнатной температуре.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Vacancy-oxygen complexes VnOm (n, m ≥ 1) in crystalline silicon are nucleation centers for oxygen precipitates, which are widely used as internal getters in modern technologies of production of silicon-based electronic devices and integrated circuits. For the controllable formation of oxygen precipitates in Si crystals in the technology processes the methods of determination of concentrations of the VnOm complexes are required. The aim of the present work was to find values of the calibration coefficients for determination of concentrations of the VnOm defects in Si from intensities of infrared (IR) absorption bands associated with the local vibrational modes (LVM) of these complexes. A combined electrical (Hall effect) and optical (IR absorption) study of vacancy-oxygen defects in identical silicon crystals irradiated with 6 MeV electrons was carried out. Based on the analysis of the data obtained, the values of the calibration coefficient for the determination of concentration of the vacancy-oxygen (VO) complex in silicon by the infrared absorption method were established: for measurements at room temperature (RT) – NVO = 8.5 · 1016 · αVO-RT cm–3, in the case of low-temperature (LT, Т ≡ 10 K) measurements – NVO = 3.5 · 1016 · αVO-LT cm–3, where αVO-RT(LT) are absorption coefficients in maxima of the LVM bands due to the VO complex in the spectra measured at corresponding temperatures. Calibration coefficients for the determination of concentrations of other VnOm (VO2, VO3, VO4, V2O and V3O) complexes and the oxygen dimer (O2) from an analysis of infrared absorption spectra measured at room temperature have been also determined.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>кремний</kwd><kwd>вакансионно-кислородные комплексы</kwd><kwd>кислородные димеры</kwd><kwd>колебательные полосы поглощения</kwd><kwd>калибровочные коэффициенты</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>silicon</kwd><kwd>vacancy-oxygen complexes</kwd><kwd>oxygen dimers</kwd><kwd>vibrational absorption bands</kwd><kwd>calibration coefficients</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Newman R.
