ABSTRACTSynchrotron x-ray pulses have been used to make nanosecond resolution time-resolved x-ray diffraction measurements on silicon during pulsed laser annealing. Thermal expansion analysis of near-surface strains during annealing has provided depth dependent temperature profiles indicating >1100°C temperatures and diffraction from boron implanted silicon has shown evidence for near-surface melting. These results are in qualitative agreement with the thermal melting model of laser annealing.

The influence of CO2 pulsed laser annealing on microstructural properties and crystal defects of nanocrystalline ZnSe thin films have been studied. X-ray diffraction was utilized to study these issues. Laser annealing led to enhance the film quality and decrease the crystal defects.

Ion-implantation has many applications in the fabrication and processing of microelectronic devices from semiconductors, but thermal treatments are required to remove defects produced by the implant and to electrically activate dopants. Recently, pulsed laser annealing has been used to activate surface layers of GaAs that have been heavily doped with 28Si+ by ion implantation, and carrier concentrations of > 1 x 1019 cm-3 have been achieved (Ref. 1). Double-crystal x-ray diffraction techniques are very sensitive to strains and defects in single crystals and provide a means for characterizing and quantifying the damage produced by ion-implantation and the subsequent relief of damage by pulsed laser annealing.
