The paramagnetic defects of Si nanowires (SiNWs) obtained by oxide-assisted growth were studied by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. For the as-grown nanowires with a typical diameter of 10−15 nm, three different defects were found: Dangling bonds or Pb-centers with g=2.0065 , located at the interface of the crystalline core to the surrounding oxide, E′-centers with g=2.0005 and EX-centers with g=2.00252 , located in the oxide. For the EX-centers, the characteristic hyperfine lines separated by 16.4 G were detected. The as-grown Si nanowires showed a spin density of about 1011 cm−2. H termination of the nanowires via hydrofluoric acid decreases the spin density drastically to 2· 109 cm−2. Further chemical modification of the H-terminated nanowires via hydrosilylation with alkenes provides alkyl-terminated nanowires as verified by Fourier-transform infrared-spectroscopy. The alkyl-terminated nanowires showed a spin density of about 1010 cm−2, which is stable for at least several weeks.
