Abstract

The radio frequency μSR technique developed at TRIUMF was used to measure the temperature dependence of the diamagnetic muon, Mu, and Mu^* amplitudes in silicon between 10 K and 500 K. Six samples doped with phosphorus (n-type) and boron (p-type) in the concentration range 10¹¹ to 10¹⁵ cm^-3 were studied. In pure Si a very good fit over the whole temperature range is obtained from a model that includes the ionization of Mu^* and Mu to a bond centered μ⁺ followed at high temperature by charge exchange involving Mu.
