A theoretical modeling of the oxygen diffusivity in silicon and germanium crystals both at normal and high hydrostatic pressure has been carried out using molecular mechanics, semiempirical and ab initio methods. It was established that the diffusion process of an interstitial oxygen atom (Oi) is controlled by the optimum configuration of three silicon (germanium) atoms nearest to Oi. The calculated values of the activation energy = 2.59 eV, ( ) a E Si ∆ ( ) a E Ge ∆ = 2.05 eV and pre-exponential factor D0 (Si) = 0.28 sm s, D0 (Ge) = 0.39 sm s are in a good agreement with experimental ones and for the first time describe perfectly an experimental temperature dependence of the Oi diffusion constant in Si crystals (T=350 1200°C). Hydrostatic pressure (P≤80 kbar) results in a linear decrease of the diffusion barrier ( = -4.38 10 ( ) P a E P ∂ ∆ -3 eV kbar for Si crystals). The calculated pressure dependence of Oi diffusivity in silicon crystals agrees well with the pressure enhanced initial growth of oxygen-related thermal donors.
