ABSTRACTPreviously published articles have shown that co-implanted fluorine reduces transient enhanced diffusion of boron. However, it is not yet elucidated whether this effect is due to interaction of fluorine with point-defects or boron atoms. In this work, we have used boron redistribution in a shallow Delta-doped Si structures in order to get some insights into the role of fluorine in the boron diffusion. The structures consisted of 3 boron-doped layers separated by 40nm-thick undoped silicon. The samples were given to Ge preamorphization and F co-implant. SIMS depth profiling was used to analyse boron redistribution after annealing. The results we obtained strongly suggest that fluorine is not interacting with point-defects. The reduction in boron TED is most probably due to boron-fluorine interaction.

ABSTRACTBoron and antimony doped superlattices (DSLs) were implanted with arsenic at 40 keV to doses of 2×1014 cm−2, 5×1015 cm−2 and 2×1016 cm−2. Increasing the arsenic dose above 5×1015 cm−2 resulted in a reduction in the extent of arsenic transient enhanced diffusion (TED) following annealing at 700°C, 16 hr. Concurrent with this reduction in TED was a reduction in the number of free interstitials beyond the end-of-range, as measured by the boron diffusion enhancement in the doped superlattices. No enhancement in antimony diffusivity was observed in this region, indicating that vacancies play no direct role in the diffusion of arsenic in this region, although an indirect role for vacancies as recombination centers for mobile interstitials is not precluded by these experiments. We conclude that interstitials dominate arsenic diffusion in the end-of-range region and beyond. Interpretation of the DSL data in the projected range region is complicated by Fermi level and segregation effects and no definitive conclusion can be reached about the point defect populations in this region.

AbstractTransient enhanced diffusion of implanted arsenic in silicon with/without additional self-implantation has been investigated. The experimental results show the suppression of As diffusion with Si self-implantation during initial stage of annealing in contrast to the prediction of conventional models. The results suggest that the arsenic and self-interstitial atoms might form immobile clusters during Si implantation or initial stage of annealing. After the clusters dissolve for further annealing, the transient enhanced diffusion of As increases with silicon implantation dose as expected from the “+1” model. These results clarify that interstitials/ As-I clusters play a major role in transient arsenic diffusion.
