Abstract

High-resolution Si KL2,3V Auger spectra of Si, SiC and SiO 2 are measured to investigate changes in the electronic structure of the valence band in these materials. Significant differences between the lineshapes of these spectra are observed. First-principles electronic structure calculations are also carried out, which reproduce the lineshapes of the KL 2,3V Auger spectra of Si, SiC and SiO2 observed experimentally. The core-hole effects on the theoretical spectral lineshapes are also taken into account in the present calculations.
