-Vac at position 2 and 4 have similar results.
-Less strain is reduced, since the displacement of the bottom silicon atom, whcih would be directly bond to the silicon atom replaced by the vacancy, is less.
-In the second case, there is even less strain reduction since the second next neighbour is replaced by the vacancy.
-A symmetric configuration is expected, but it is not!
-jahn-Teller distortion ... check this!
-In both cases the db is tilted in such a way, that the carbon atom moves towards the vacancy.
-At position 5 the silicon dumbbell atom moves in \hkl<1 1 0> direction, the same direction where the vacancy is located.
-Strain reducde by this is partialy absorbed by strain originating from the fact that si atom bound to and pulled by the carbon atom is also pulled by the vacancy.
+During carbon implantation into crystalline silicon the energetic carbon atoms may kick out silicon atoms from their lattice sites.
+A vacancy accompanied by a silicon self-interstitial is generated.
+The silicon self-interstitial may migrate to the surface or recombine with other vacancies.
+Once a vacancy and a carbon interstitial defect exist the energetically most favorable configuration is the configuration of a substitutional carbon atom, that is the carbon atom occupying the vacant site.
+In addition, it is a conceivable configuration the system might experience during the silicon carbide precipitation process.
+Energies needed to overcome the migration barrier of the transformation into this configuration enable predictions concerning the feasibility of a silicon carbide conversion mechanism derived from these microscopic processes.
+This is especially important for the case, in which the vacancy is created at position 3, as discussed in the last section and figure \ref{fig:defects:comb_db_06} b).
+Due to the low binding energy this configuration might constitute a trap, which it is hard to escape from.
+However, migration simulations show that only a low amount of energy is necessary to transform the system into the energetically most favorable configuration.
