ABSTRACTIn this paper, we examine the dopant distributions in 1.8 to 4 micron-thick boron- and phosphorus-doped epitaxial silicon layers. These layers were grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on arsenic-, antimony-, or boron-doped (100)- and (111)-oriented substrates. We performed doping profile studies by means of local resistivity measurements using a spreading resistance probe (SRP). Chemical profiles of the dopants were also obtained using secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS).

Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) provides unique capabilities for elemental and molecular compositional analysis of a wide variety of surfaces. This relatively new technique is finding increasing applications in analyses concerned with determining the chemical composition of various polymer surfaces, identifying the composition of organic and inorganic residues on surfaces and the localization of molecular or structurally significant secondary ions signals from biological tissues. TOF-SIMS analyses are typically performed under low primary ion dose (static SIMS) conditions and hence the secondary ions formed often contain significant structural information.This paper will present an overview of current TOF-SIMS instrumentation with particular emphasis on the stigmatic imaging ion microscope developed in the authors’ laboratory. This discussion will be followed by a presentation of several useful applications of the technique for the characterization of polymer surfaces and biological tissues specimens. Particular attention in these applications will focus on how the analytical problem impacts the performance requirements of the mass spectrometer and vice-versa.
