Abstract

The interactions between hydrogen and intrinsic defects in silicon are studied using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations in periodic supercells and Hartree-Fock in saturated clusters. The two issues discussed here are the complexes involving one neutral self-interstitial with one to four H's and the trapping of a single H at various vacancy aggregates. The binding energies, structures, and properties of these defects are calculated.
