ABSTRACTIn recent years, a number of experimental observations have indicated that interactions between mobile point defects generated during ion implantation play an important role in the damage production in Ill-V compound semiconductors, and particularly GaAs. This paper reviews a set of such observations based on ion channeling measurements of the lattice damage in GaAs implanted with Si ions. Selected independent observations are also surveyed to illustrate the importance of point-defect interactions. Taken together, these show that at least two contributions to the lattice damage must often be considered: a “prompt” contribution attributed to direct-impact amorphization, and a “delayed” contribution attributed to point-defect clustering. New measurements are then described which show the different effects that these two damage components have on the electrical activation in annealed, Siimplanted GaAs. The aim is to indicate the potential to exploit the balance between these two damage contributions in order to improve the electrical performance and reproducibility of ion-implanted and annealed layers. Finally, the applicability of these concepts to other ion species and other compound semiconductors (GaP and InP) is briefly discussed.

AbstractRutherford backscattering and ion channeling-axial scans have been used to study lattice sites for several impurities implanted into A12O3. The case of Ga implanted in A12O3 is discussed and is shown to be substitutional on the Al sublattice. Additionally, the use of this technique in the study of precipitates in A12O3 is discussed with reference to Fe implanted A12O3 which was annealed in either oxygen or hydrogen.

AbstractVariable frequency microwaves (VFM) and rapid thermal annealing (RTA) were used to activate ion implanted dopants and re-grow implant-damaged silicon. Four-point-probe measurements were used to determine the extent of dopant activation and revealed comparable resistivities for 30 seconds of RTA annealing at 900 °C and 6-9 minutes of VFM annealing at 540 °C. Ion channeling analysis spectra revealed that microwave heating removes the Si damage that results from arsenic ion implantation to an extent comparable to RTA. Cross-section transmission electron microscopy demonstrates that the silicon lattice regains nearly all of its crystallinity after microwave processing of arsenic implanted silicon. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy reveals limited diffusion of dopants in VFM processed samples when compared to rapid thermal annealing. Our results establish that VFM is an effective means of low-temperature dopant activation in ion-implanted Si.

ABSTRACTWe report on the effectiveness of proximity caps and PECVD Si3N4 caps during annealing of implanted ZnSe films. OMVPE ZnSe films were grown using diisopropylselenide (DIPSe) and diethylzinc (DEZn) precursors, then ion-implanted with 1 × 1014 cm−2 N (33 keV) or Ne (45 keV) at room temperature and liquid nitrogen temperature, and rapid thermal annealed at temperatures between 200°C and 850°C. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry in the channeling orientation was used to investigate damage recovery, and photoluminescence spectroscopy was used to investigate crystal quality and the formation of point defects. Low temperature implants were found to have better luminescence properties than room temperature implants, and results show that annealing time and temperature may be more important than capping material in determining the optical properties. The effects of various caps, implant and annealing temperature are discussed in terms of their effect on the photoluminescence spectra.
