Ion Implanted

A series of ion-implanted 4H-SiC epilayers, Aluminum (Al) – Carbon (C) co-implanted and Al single implanted, have been studied by micro-Raman scattering, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and UV-Visible (200-1100 nm) optical transmission (OT) measurements. The damage and amorphization of SiC layer by ion-implantation, and the elimination or suppression of the implantation induced amorphous layer via high temperature annealing are evidenced. The recovery of the crystallinity and the activation of the implant acceptors are confirmed. Theoretical simulations on the spectroscopic features, for FTIR reflectance spectra, are performed based upon the structural model. The results from different ion implantation conditions are compared. This work also provides a non-destructive and convenient way to investigate the effects of ion implantation/annealing on SiC materials.

Ion Implanted

The defect microstructures of Si arising from ion implantation and subsequent regrowth for a (111) substrate have been found to be dominated by microtwins. Figure 1(a) is a typical diffraction pattern of annealed ion-implanted (111) Si showing two groups of extra diffraction spots; one at positions (m, n integers), the other at adjacent positions between <000> and <220>. The object of the present paper is to show that these extra reflections are a direct consequence of the microtwins in the material.

AbstractTwo different Si(100) substrates, the 4°off-axis and the on-axis Si(100), were prepared. Ti thin films were deposited in an e-beam evaporation system and the amorphous layers of Ti-silicide were formed at different annealing temperatures. The Si(100) substrates before Ti film deposition were examined with AFM to verify the atomic scale roughness of the initial Si substrates. The amorphous layer was observed by HRTEM and TEM. And the chemical analysis and phase identification were examined by AES and XRD. The Si(100) substrate after HF clean shows the atomic scale microroughness such as atomic steps and pits on the Si surface. The on-axis Si(100) substrate exhibits much rougher surface morphologies than those of the off-axis Si(100). These differences of atomic scale roughnesses of Si substrates result in the difference of the thicknesses of amorphous Ti-silicide layers. The amorphous layer thicknesses on the on-axis exhibit thicker than those of the off-axis Si(100) and these differences inamorphous layer thicknesses became decreased as annealing temperatures increased. These indicate that the role of the atomic scale roughness on the amorphous layer thickness is much significant at low temperatures. In this study, the correlation between the atomic scale roughness and the amorphous layer thickness is discussed in terms of the atomic steps and pits based on the observation with using analysis tools such as AFM, TEM and HRTEM.

ABSTRACTThe effects of nitrogen ion implantation of Ti-6AI-4V alloy on growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria on surfaces of the alloy have been investigated. Results for ion implanted samples were compared with controls with similarly smoothly polished surfaces and with controls that had intentionally roughened surfaces. The test consisted of exposing sterile alloy samples to a microbiological broth, to which 24 hour-old cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa had been added. After bioassociation at normal temperature 37°C, bacteria adhering to the surface were fixed and treated with a new ruthenium tetroxide staining method, and quantified by use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), back-scattered electron imaging and EDAX energy dispersive microanalysis. For smooth samples of the alloy, after a 12 hour growth period, the retained bacteria (revealed by the biologically incorporated ruthenium), decreased monotonically with nitrogen dose out to a total fluence of approximately 7 × 1017/cm2 in an affected depth of approximately 0.1500 μm. The SEM confirmed that the Pseudomonas aeruginosa adhered equally to control materials. The ruthenium studies revealed that the amount of bacterial adhesion is indirectly proportional to the nitrogen ion implantation of the titanium. The greater the percentage of nitrogen ion implantation in the titanium alloy, the less bacteria colonized the disk.

ABSTRACTVacancy-type defects in ion implanted Si were studied by a monoenergetic positron beam. The depth-distributions of the defects were obtained from measurements of Doppler broadening profiles of the positron annihilation as a function of incident positron energy. The results showed that a size of vacany-clusters introduced by 150-keV P+-ion implantation was found to be smaller than that introduced by 2-MeV P+-ion implantation. This was attributed to an overlap of collision cascades in low-energy (150 keV) ion implanted specimens. From isochronal annealing experiments for 80-keV B+- and 150-keV P+-ion implanted specimens, the defected region was removed by 1200 °C annealing, however, for 2-MeV P+-implanted specimen, two-types of oxygen-vacancy complexes were found to coexist even after 1200 °C annealing.

ABSTRACTIn this work we report the structural and optical properties of ion implanted GaN. Potential acceptors such as Ca and Er were used as dopants. Ion implantation was carried out with the substrate at room temperature and 550 °C, respectively. The lattice site location of the dopants was studied by Rutherford backscattering/channeling combined with particle induced X-ray emission. Angular scans along both [0001] and [1011] directions show that 50% of the Er ions implanted at 550 oC occupy substitutional or near substitutional Ga sites after annealing. For Ca we found only a fraction of 30% located in displaced Ga sites along the [0001] direction. The optical properties of the ion implanted GaN films have been studied by photoluminescence measurements. Er- related luminescence near 1.54 μm is observed under below band gap excitation at liquid helium temperature. The spectra of the annealed samples consist of multiline structures with the sharpest lines found in GaN until now. The green and red emissions were also observed in the Er doped samples after annealing.
