Abstract
Electrical levels of the dislocation network in Si and recombination processes via these levels were studied by means of the combination of grain-boundary deep level transient spectroscopy, grain-boundary electron beam induced current (GB-EBIC) and cathodoluminescence (CL). It was found two deep level traps and one shallow trap existed at the interface of the bonded interface; these supply the recombination centers for carriers. The total recombination probability based on GB-EBIC data increased with the excitation level monotonically; however, the radiative recombination based on D1-D2 CL data exhibited a maximum at a certain excitation level. By applying an external bias across the bonded interface, the CL signal of D-lines was enhanced dramatically. These results are consistent with our models about two channels of recombination via the trap levels.
