The formation of buried oxide structures in single crystal silicon by high-dose oxygen ion implantation has received considerable attention recently for applications in advanced electronic device fabrication. This process is performed in a vacuum, and under the proper implantation conditions results in a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure with a top single crystal silicon layer on an amorphous silicon dioxide layer. The top Si layer has the same orientation as the silicon substrate. The quality of the outermost portion of the Si top layer is important in device fabrication since it either can be used directly to build devices, or epitaxial Si may be grown on this layer. Therefore, careful characterization of the results of the ion implantation process is essential.

In analogy to the formation of SIMOX (Separation by IMplanted OXygen) material which is presently the most promising silicon-on-insulator technology, high-dose ion implantation of cobalt in silicon is used to synthesise buried CoSi2 layers. So far, for high-dose ion implantation of Co in Si, only formation of CoSi2 is reported. In this paper it will be shown that CoSi inclusions occur when the stoichiometric Co concentration is exceeded at the peak of the Co distribution. 350 keV Co+ ions are implanted into (001) Si wafers to doses of 2, 4 and 7×l017 per cm2. During the implantation the wafer is kept at ≈ 550°C, using beam heating. The subsequent annealing treatment was performed in a conventional nitrogen flow furnace at 1000°C for 5 to 30 minutes (FA) or in a dual graphite strip annealer where isochronal 5s anneals at temperatures between 800°C and 1200°C (RTA) were performed. The implanted samples have been studied by means of Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS) and cross-section Transmission Electron Microscopy (XTEM).

ABSTRACTIon implantation is widely used for doping semiconductors at low concentration, but, with the advent of a new generation of high current implanters, synthesizing new materials rather that simply doping them has become feasible. This technique has been successfully applied to fabricating silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structures with oxygen and nitrogen for several years. Since we are interested in understanding the mechanisms of formation of these layers, we have concentrated on sub-stoichiometric implantation doses of oxygen where it is easier to observe the coalescing layer. In order to determine whether this process of compound formation is more general, our studies were expanded to include implantation of the transition metals. Here, elevated substrate temperatures are necessary to minimize Si surface damage. The resulting disilicide layers are of remarkably high quality: they are single crystals in registry with the silicon wafer and they have better residual resistivities than comparable UHV-reacted silicides.

Abstract Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is adopted to discover the underlying mechanism of silicon vacancy color center and damage evolution during helium ions implanted four-hexagonal silicon carbide (4H-SiC) and subsequent annealing. The atomic-scale mechanism of silicon vacancy color centers in the process of He ion implantation into 4H-SiC can be described more accurately by incorporating electron stopping power for He ion implantation. We present a new method for calculating the silicon vacancy color center numerically, which considers the structure around the color center and makes the statistical results more accurate than the Wigner-Seitz defect analysis method. At the same time, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy of silicon vacancy color center under different helium ion doses is also characterized for validating the numerical analysis. The MD simulation of the optimal annealing temperature of silicon vacancy color center is predicted by the proposed new method.
