Abstract

Epitaxial layers (EL) Si:Sn doped with Yb in the process of liquid phase epitaxy were studied by optical microscopy and photoluminescence (PL) methods.At low concentration of lanthanoid (0,01 < Nyb > 0,1 weight %) the good planarity of the interface and high quality of the surface are detected. At NYb > 0,1 weight % microirregularities are presented.

In EL Si:(Sn, Yb) irradiated by 4,5 MeV-electrons the suppression of the generation of radiaton defects, responsible for G– and C-lines of PL, has been found. This effect has been explainedwithin the score of the model takeng into the consideration gettering propering ofYb in reference to the impurities of 0 and C as deformation fields, attributed to the presence of Sn atoms.
