AbstractCarrier-driven photochemical etching of semiconductors can be selectively suppressed by altering the near-surface region to enhance carrier recombination, thereby reducing the supply of carriers that drive the surface etching reaction. Two methods for enhancing recombination and decreasing the etch rate at a given phonon flux include ion implantation and localized Zn diffusion. Raman spectroscopy can be employed to determine whether sufficient alteration of electronic properties has occurred to suppress etching.Carrier-driven photochemical reactions, which require direct participation of free carriers for the chemical reaction to proceed, can be selectively suppressed by increasing the minority carrier recombination rate, thereby reducing the supply of carriers that drive the surface etching reaction. Two methods for enhancing recombination and decreasing the etching quantum yield, which is the number of atoms removed per incident photon, include ion implantation and localized Zn diffusion. For ion implantation, recombination-promoting defect concentrations depend on ion species, fluence, and annealing both during and after the implantation process. Other recombination processes related to carrier scattering from ionized impurities from in-diffusion of dopants or following implant activation can control etching.Raman spectroscopy can be employed to detect changes in electronic properties that correlate with etching suppression. Changes that occur in the LO-phonon lineshape, such as those associated with phonon confinement and ionized impurity scattering, can be diagnostic of the carrier-driven etching behavior following a specific treatment. We have demonstrated two applications of Raman spectroscopy as a diagnostic for suppression of the carrier-driven photochemical etching of GaAs.

This paper presents a new simple hand using and fast simulator for ion implantation in 4H-SiC substrates developed by IBS for ESCAPEE European project. The modeling is divided in two parts: Empirical Depth Profile Simulator (EDPS) and Activation/Electrical Properties Simulator (AEPS). EDPS is calibrated for aluminium (Al) and nitrogen (N) implantations into 4H-SiC from SIMS measurements. Implanted dopant profile is constructed using the Pearson IV distribution. Moments of this distribution are extracted from experimental data (SIMS). This modeling takes multiple implantation and dopant diffusion into consideration. After annealing, activation properties related to the junction are predicted using AEPS. This allows prediction of sheet resistance of the implanted layer. Modeling accuracy is demonstrated by comparisons with experimental data.

We analyzed possibility to increase density of field-effect heterotransistors framework an injection locked oscillator. We obtain, that to increase the density of the considered transistors one shall manufacture them in a heterostructure with specific configuration (substrate and epitaxial layer with sections, which were manufactured by using other materials). These sections should be doped by using ion implantation or dopant diffusion. After the doping optimized annealing of dopant and/or radiation defects should done. To formulate recommendations for the optimization we model mass transport (with account nonlinearity) with time and space varying parameters. To make the modelling we introduce an analytical approach. The approach gives a possibility to make the above modelling without crosslinking of solution on interfaces of the heterostructure.
