Highly energetic collisions in the IBS process might result in separations of these defects exceeding the capture radius.
For this reason situations most likely occur in which the configuration of substitutional C can be considered without a nearby interacting Si self-interstitial and, thus, unable to form a thermodynamically more stable C-Si \hkl<1 0 0> dumbbell configuration.
