In silicon amorphized by ion implantation (a‐Si) the dependence of magnetic ordering temperature (θ) on localized spin concentration ( N s ) is studied by EPR method. N s changes by varying the Ne + ion dose from 6 × 10 14 to 2 × 10 17 cm −2 and sample annealing. From the comparison of the data obtained with literature ones conclusions are made about the existence of two critical values of N s in a‐Si (≈ 10 19 and ≈ 2 × 10 20 cm −3 ), when a transition occurs from paramagnetism to antiferromagnetism (at T < θ) and from antiferromagnetism to ferromagnetism, respectively.
