Interactions of various combinations of defects have been characterized including a couple of selected migration pathways within these configurations. Almost all of the investigated pairs of defects tend to agglomerate allowing for a reduction in strain. -The formation of structures involving strong carbon-carbon bonds was found to occur very unlikely. -In contrast, substitutional carbon was found to occur in all probability. +The formation of structures involving strong carbon-carbon bonds has been found to occur very unlikely. +In contrast, substitutional carbon occurs in all probability. A long range capture radius has been observed for pairs of interstitial carbon as well as interstitial carbon and vacancies. A rather small capture radius has been identified for substitutional carbon and silicon self-interstitials. We derive conclusions on the precipitation mechanism of silicon carbide in bulk silicon and discuss conformability to experimental findings.
