The local order around Mn atoms in the Mn-implanted Si samples, with ferromagnetic properties, has been investigated by use of x-ray-absorption spectroscopy techniques. Analysis of both extended x-ray-absorption fine structure and x-ray absorption near-edge structure spectra clearly indicates that Mn ions are located neither in the substitutional nor in the interstitial position in the Si lattice, but depending on how the samples were prepared, they have five to eight near neighbors.
