The effects of host isotope mass on the hyperfine interaction of group-V
donors in silicon are revealed by pulsed electron nuclear double resonance
(ENDOR) spectroscopy of isotopically engineered Si single crystals. Each of the
hyperfine-split P-31, As-75, Sb-121, Sb-123, and Bi-209 ENDOR lines splits
further into multiple components, whose relative intensities accurately match
the statistical likelihood of the nine possible average Si masses in the four
nearest-neighbor sites due to random occupation by the three stable isotopes
Si-28, Si-29, and Si-30. Further investigation with P-31 donors shows that the
resolved ENDOR components shift linearly with the bulk-averaged Si mass.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, 1 tabl
