ABSTRACTComposite nanowires with typical diameters of 30-100nm, which consisted of Si, β-SiC, amorphous carbon were converted from Si nanowires by ion beam deposition. The Si nanorods were exposed to broad low energy ion beams. The low energy hydrocarbon, argon and hydrogen ions, generated in a Kaufman ion source, reacted with Si nanowires and formed the composite nanowires. It has been assumed that the reaction pathway to form the composite nanowires were driven by both thermal diffusion and kinetic energic of interacting particles.

AbstractIon beam modification of polyimide (PI) by low energy and surface analysis were performed using XPS. The surface chemistry was monitored as a function of ion dose. The results indicate that even low energy ion beam (LEIB) induces a drastic change in chemical compositions on the PI surface, and the modification begins to occur at the onset of beam treatment, contrary to previous observations. Damage level is severely restricted to surface region. It is also proven that LEIB modification is a direct way to control interface chemistry.

ABSTRACTA review is given of the requirements on MBE-grown layers as far as processing is concerned. Aspects that are considered are: defect density, particulates, background doping and metallic contamination. The stability of the grown layers against thermal anneals is considered. It is shown that normal thermal diffusion in HBT structures is not important, other effects, like transient diffusion following ion implantation, have drastic effects on the grown profiles. As an example the processing of mesa-isolated heterojunction bipolar transistors is treated. It is shown that all-Si transistors can be grown with ideal Gummel plots. The Gummel plots of SiGe HBTs show small non-idealities. The current gain enhancement of the HBTs with respect to the all-Si transistors is shown to be as large as 200 times. Due to transient diffusion, parasitic barriers are formed, that have a detrimental effect on the AC and DC performance.
