Abstract :
New experiments on short-time diffusion of gold in silicon are presented. Diffusion of gold in silicon is investigated in the temperature range of 900°C to 1100°C. The values of the barrier energies for both the gold-point defect reactions and the Frenkel pair reaction have been determined as EAu/I = 0.482eV, EAuI/V= 0.971eV, and EI/V = 0.30eV.
