Upper limit on room-temperature diffusion of metal impurities interstitially dissolved in amorphous Si
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Impurity profiles of Cu and Ag in amorphous silicon were studied before and after one year storage at room temperature and found to be indistinguishable. Since just before storage, hydrogen had been ion implanted into the uniformly metal doped layer, a diffusivity in excess of 3 × 10 −24 m 2 /s would have led to an observable change in the impurity profile. Therefore the room-temperature diffusivity must be less than that (3 × 10 −24 m 2 /s), which in turn implies one of two possibilities: either the interstitial diffusivity is much lower than previously determined, or the metal impurities were not fully detrapped by the implanted hydrogen. A subsequent thermal anneal at 450 °C confirmed that the detrapping and diffusion of Ag and Cu in H-implanted amorphous Si conforms to its normal behaviour. The low value of the room-temperature diffusivity is important for the interpretation of forthcoming measurements on high-energy ion tracks in amorphous Si.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
