Abstract

The Electron Beam Induced Current (EBIC) contrast of a surface perpendicular dislocation has been calculated using a Monte Carlo algorithm. The dislocation is described as a cylinder with a radius r_D. The minority carrier lifetime within the cylinder, T_D, is assumed to be smaller than that outside, T_B. The dependence of the maximum contrast upon the primary beam energy E₀, the carrier lifetimes T_D and T_B and the dislocation radius T_D has been investigated. Our results are compared to those obtained by the analytical approach.
