 Thus, $E_{\text{b}}$ can be best thought of a binding energy, which is required to bring the defects to infinite separation.
 In fact, a \hkl<0 0 -1> dumbbell interstitial created at position R with a distance of $\frac{a_{\text{Si}}}{2}\hkl<3 2 3>$ ($\approx 12.8$ \AA) from the initial one results in an energy as low as -0.19 eV.

 The energies obtained in the R column of table \ref{eq:defects:e_of_comb} are used as a reference to identify, whether less distanced defects of the same type are favorable or unfavorable compared to the far-off located defect.
 Configurations wih energies greater than zero or the reference value are energetically unfavorable and expose a repulsive interaction.
 These configurations are unlikely to arise or to persist for non-zero temperatures.
