Low temperature boron and phosphorous diffusion gettering (BDG and PDG) of iron in Czochralski-grown silicon were experimentally studied. Differences and similarities between the gettering techniques were clarified by using intentionally iron contaminated wafers emphasizing especially the effect of oxygen. Experiments showed that the surprisingly high gettering effects of BDG could be explained by B-Si precipitates. Oxygen precipitation was seen to decrease minority carrier diffusion length after long gettering at low temperatures in both BDG and PDG. In the case of BDG oxygen precipitation affected more as a higher thermal budget was needed to obtain similar sheet resistance to that of PDG. According to experiments the efficiency of BDG can not be concluded from the sheet resistance, whereas the efficiency of PDG can. This has practical influences in a process control environment.

Anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) nanochannels of diameter, D, of ~50 nm and length, L, of ~60 µm (L/D: approx. 1200 in the aspect ratio), were synthesized and applied as an electrode for the electrochemical growth of Co/Cu multilayered heterojunction nanocylinders. We synthesized numerous Co/Cu multilayered nanocylinders by applying a rectangular pulsed potential deposition method. The Co layer thickness, tCo, ranged from ~8 to 27 nm, and it strongly depended on the pulsed-potential condition for Co layers, ECo. The Cu layer thickness, tCu, was kept at less than 4 nm regardless of ECo. We applied an electrochemical in situ contact technique to connect a Co/Cu multilayered nanocylinder with a sputter-deposited Au thin layer. Current perpendicular-to-plane giant magnetoresistance (CPP-GMR) effect reached up to ~23% in a Co/Cu multilayered nanocylinder with ~4760 Co/Cu bilayers (tCu: 4 nm and tCo: 8.6 nm). With a decrease in tCo, (ΔR/Rp)−1 was linearly reduced based on the Valet–Fert equation under the condition of tF > lFsf and tN < lNsf. The cobalt spin-diffusion length, lCosf, was estimated to be ~12.5 nm.

By a quantization-axis transformation, we derive an extended equation which Green's function satisfies in the presence of spin-flip scattering, and then apply the Kubo formula to study the variation of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) in magnetic multilayered structures with the angle θ between the magnetizations of succesive magnetic films. It is found that in the presence of spin-flip scattering and spin-dependent potential barriers, the linear dependence of GMR on sin 2(θ/2) can be approximately obtained, which is qualitatively consistent with the experimental result.
