Popis: Doppler S‐parameter measurements have been performed on low‐pressure chemical vapor deposited (LPCVD) Si3N4 samples. Annealing of the samples at 1000 °C for times up to 1 h resulted in a decrease of both the S parameter and the positron diffusion length of the silicon nitride. The diffusion length recovers after reimplantation of deuterium, but the S parameter remains low. The data are discussed using a model also applied to understand some electrical properties of the LPCVD nitride.
