Abstract

EPR measurements of hydrogen-treated Si:Pt single crystals reveal a pair of equivalent Pt ions on next-nearest-neighbor sites. The g values and hyperfine parameters differ essentially from those of a previously detected Pt pair center; therefore, an additional constituent in at least one of the complexes is suggested. Possible models with adjacent defects having spin states of S=0 or 1/2, respectively, are offered.
