Abstract

AbstractBy considering valence force potentials the cores of the glide‐set 30° and 90° partial dislocations in silicon are investigated. It is shown that the 30° partial probably does not contain dangling bonds, while on the other hand dangling bonds at the 90° partial are more likely to exist as pairing of bonds across its core is opposed by a strong shear field. The implications of the results on the electron states of the partials are briefly discussed.
