abstract = {In this paper we examine the electronic and geometrical
structure of impurity-vacancy complexes in Si and Ge.
Already Watkins suggested that in Si the pairing of Sn with
the vacancy produces a complex with the Sn-atom at the bond
center and the vacancy split into two half vacancies on the
neighboring sites. Within the framework of
density-functional theory we use two complementary ab initio
methods, the pseudopotential-plane-wave method and the
all-electron Kohn-Korringa-Rostoker method, to investigate
the structure of vacancy complexes with 11 different
sp-impurities. For the case of Sn in Si, we confirm the
split configuration and obtain good agreement with EPR data
of Watkins. In general we find that all impurities of the
5sp and 6sp series in Si and Ge prefer the split-vacancy
configuration, with an energy gain of 0.5-1 eV compared to
the substitutional complex. On the other hand, impurities of
the 3sp and 4sp series form a (slightly distorted)
substitutional complex. Al impurities show an exception from
this rule, forming a split complex in Si and a strongly
distorted substitutional complex in Ge. We find a strong
correlation of these data with the size of the isolated
impurities, being defined via the lattice relaxations of the
nearest neighbors.},
