Department of Solid-State Sciences, Ghent University, B-9000 Gent, BelgiumThe behavior of oxygen in oxygen-doped high-resistivity~HR! n-type float-zone~FZ! silicon has been studied using a combinationof analytical techniques. In the as-doped material, a large number of deep levels have been observed with deep-level transientspectroscopy. The corresponding parameters ~concentration, activation energy, and trap signature! are given, and the possibleidentity is discussed in view of the presence of oxygen and other impurities in the material. In addition, the impact of alow-temperature hydrogen-plasma preannealing on the formation of oxygen thermal donors~OTDs! and other oxygen-relatedshallow thermal donors ~STDs! at 450°C is described. It is shown that the introduction rate of OTDs in oxygenated HR FZ siliconis much smaller than in Czochralski silicon. In fact, for short anneals at 450°C following a plasma treatment, the STDs are theones which have been predominantly created near the surface of the samples.© 2003 The Electrochemical Society. @DOI: 10.1149/1.1595665# All rights reserved.Manuscript submitted July 7, 2002; revised manuscript received March 18, 2003.
