Abstract

The electronic properties of hydrogen in carbon-doped n-type silicon have been studied using deep-level transient spectroscopy. The results show for the first time that hydrogen in the presence of carbon forms a deep and charge-state-dependent center located \ensuremath{\sim}0.16 eV below the edge of the conduction band. This trap center is a deep donor which is only stable in the positively charged state and anneals after capture of electrons for temperatures T\ensuremath{\ge}300 K.
