Dynamics and reactivity of positively charged muonium in heavily doped Si:B and comparisons with hydrogen.

The detailed dynamics of the positively charged muonium (Mu+) in heavily doped p-type Si:B is reported. Below 200 K, Mu+ is static and isolated, and is located in a stretched Si-Si bond. Above approximately 200 K, Mu+ diffuses incoherently. At temperatures higher than 300 K, the Mu+-B- complex is fo...
