ABSTRACTRapid thermal annealing has been used to study the electrical activation mechanisms for magnesium and selenium implants in GaAs. By analysing the changes in electrical activity as a function of annealing time and temperature, a model has been developed which accurately predicts the electrical properties following the post-implant annealing stage. The model has been used to study the activation of other ions, particularly zinc, beryllium, tin and sulphur, the results of which will be compared with those of magnesium and selenium. The results suggest that the mechanism for electrical activation is dominated by the diffusion of gallium, arsenic or vacancies. The paper will present the model and discuss the activation mechanisms of the ions.

ABSTRACTThis paper discusses the properties of high intensity lamp-annealed silicon or beryllium-implanted GaAs and InP samples. We find this annealing process can result in efficient activation of dopants. Conventional furnace annealing at the same temperature does not result in increased electrical activation of the dopants. High fluence silicon implants can be activated in anneal times as short as 2 seconds, while low fluence silicon implants require more extended annealing. Activation of low fluence implants in GaAs depends strongly on the properties of the bulk semiinsulating material.

ABSTRACTTransient enhanced diffusion (TED) and electrical activation (EA) of ion-implanted boron during rapid thermal annealing has been investigated using three types of boron doped p-type Si (100) substrates: (a) Cz 20 Ωcm, (b) 3 μm thick 20 Ωcm epitaxial Si layer (epi-layer) grown on a 20 Ωcm Cz substrate, and (c) 3 μm thick 20 Ωcm epi-layer grown on a 5 mΩcin Fz substrate. The level of oxygen is known to decrease from material type (a) to (c). The samples were implanted with 20 keV, 5×1013cm−2boron and subjected to rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at various temperatures and times. The EA and TED were studied using spreading resistance profiling (SRP) and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), respectively. Although the amount of TED is almost identical for the three substrates, the EA is found to be significantly higher in the epi-layers compared to Cz substrates. It is speculated that the trapping of vacancies by oxygen in the ion-damaged region leads to an increase in the interstitial supersaturation during annealing, which then results in enhanced boron clustering and reduced electrical activation in the peak of the implanted profile.

AbstractConventional and Rapid Thermal Annealing of Semi-Insulating Polycrystalline Silicon layers obtained by Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD) from disilane Si2H6 have been performed in order to determine the structural modifications induced on the layers by these thermal treatments. The study of these modifications has been carried out by several analysis methods like FTIR, XPS, TEM, RAMAN and ellipsometry. The results obtained are presented, contrasted and discussed in this work.
