Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

The science and technology related with light has revolutionized modern society, and understanding the effects of light on semiconducting materials has become crucial to current science and technology. Although much research has been done on the effects of light on the electronic and optical properties of materials, the effects of light on the mechanical properties of materials are not well understood. It was recently found that extraordinarily large plasticity appears in bulk compression of single-crystal ZnS in complete darkness even at room-temperature. This is believed to be due to the less interactions between dislocations and photo-excited electrons and/or holes. However, methods for evaluating dislocation behavior in such semiconductors with small dimensions under a particular light condition had not been well established. Here we show a new nanoindentation method that incorporates well designed lighting system for exploring dislocation behavior depending on the light conditions in advanced semiconductors. We used single-crystal ZnS as a model material because its bulk deformation behavior has been well investigated. It is confirmed that the decrease of dislocation mobility with light observed in conventional bulk deformation tests can be understood even by the nanoindentation tests at room-temperature. It is remarkable that we experimentally demonstrate that dislocation mobility appears to be more sensitive to light exposure than dislocation nucleation.
