Abstract: Single crystalline silicon specimens are irradiated at room temperatUre with 750MeV argon ions. Positron lifetime, electron paramagnetic resonance as well as infrared optical absorphon measurementS are conducted tO study the radiahon induced defects in the specimens. It is found that neutral divacancies are the main vacancy clusters induced by the irradiations. UP to 4.3×1014ions/cm2 no amorphous phase is detected. At the end of the range the divacancy concentrahon increases dramahcally with increasing dose whereas in the electronic processes dominating area the concentration of divacancy saturates. It is therefore proposed that the radiahon induced defects can be annealed by the energy deposihon through electronic processes.
