Sheet resistance and Hall measurements have been made on boron layers implanted into [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] silicon at energies between 15 and 60 KeV. The features of the annealing curves are discussed. Hall measurements indicate that the large reverse annealing effect observed in several samples implanted at room temperature is due to a rapid fall off in the density of an acceptor level between annealing temperatures of 400 and 600 °C. It is suggested that this level is associated with substitutional boron.Conducting layers formed by implants at high doses (6 × 1015 cm−2) and low annealing temperatures are shown to be sensitive to specimen temperature during implantation and dose rate. This sensitivity is associated with the formation of an amorphous layer.The conductivity of layers implanted at temperatures of 400–500 °C is shown to be lower than corresponding room temperature implants followed by annealing.

ABSTRACTBilayers of Cu with TiSi2 and TaSi2 were tested by furnace annealing at temperatures from 200 to 500°C. Rutherford Back Scattering (RBS) technique was used to investigate the interaction between various films and determine the stability of Cu on silicide structures. The sheet resistance was also monitored. The results show that Cu on TiSi2 and TaSi2 structures are extremely stable structures at annealing temperatures in the range of room temperature to 500 °C. In such structures, therefore, there will not be a need of any diffusion barrier between Cu and the silicide films.

The electrical activation of 1×1020cm-3implanted Al in 4H-SiC has been studied in the temperature range 1500 - 1950 °C by the analysis of the sheet resistance of the Al implanted layers, as measured at room temperature. The minimum annealing time for reaching stationary electrical at fixed annealing temperature has been found. The samples with stationary electrical activation have been used to estimate the thermal activation energy for the electrical activation of the implanted Al.

ABSTRACTThe damage introduced by CH4/H2 reactive ion etching (RIE) and its recovery after thermal annealing has been investigated by Hall measurements and low temperature photoluminescence (PL) on pseudomorphic AlGaAs/InGaAs modulation doped structures. After plasma exposure, the PL intensity has significantly decreased and shifted in energy. In order to study the recovery of the damage introduced by the plasma, thermal annealing was done at temperatures between 350 and 500°C. We observed that the luminescence emission is totally recovered after annealing at 450°C. Hall measurements at room temperature (RT) and at 77K showed that the electrical characteristics of these structures can be restored only after thermal annealing at 500°C.The optimised etching conditions have been applied in a fabrication process for submicron dry gate recessed pseudomorphic delta-doped AlGaAs/InGaAs modulation doped field effect transistors (MODFETs). For a 0.25 mm gatelength device the maximum DC transconductance value was as high as 680 mS/mm. The same value was extracted from measurements at 15 GHz.

Ti films of same thickness, and near normal deposition angle, and same deposition rate were deposited on glass substrates, at room temperature, under UHV conditions. Different annealing temperatures as 393K, 493K and 593K with uniform 8 cm3/sec, oxygen flow, were used for producing titanium oxide layers. Their nanostructures were determined by AFM and XRD methods. Roughness of the films changed due to annealing process. The gettering property of Ti and annealing temperature can play an important role in the nanostructure of the films.

AbstractThis work describes phosphorus (P) and boron (B) doping of polysilicon filns deposited on quartz. Doping is achieved by means of a pulsed ArF excimer laser to melt a controlled thickness of amorphous or polycristalline silicon film coated with a spinon silicate glass (SOG) film containing the dopant (P or B). We have investigated the influence of doping parameters such as laser fluence, number of shots and dopant film thickness on the sheet resistance and the incorporation rate. From these results, we have shown that high doped, shallow junctions presenting sheet resistance lower than 5 kΩ/∠ can be obtained. Poly-Si TFT's with good electrical characteristics were successfully fabricated using this doping technique.

The realization of electrically pumped emitters at micro and nanoscale, especially with flexibility or special shapes is still a goal for prospective fundamental research and application. Herein, zinc oxide (ZnO) microwires were produced to investigate the luminescent properties affected by stress. To exploit the initial stress, room temperature in situ elastic bending stress was applied on the microwires by squeezing between the two approaching electrodes. A novel unrecoverable deformation phenomenon was observed by applying a large enough voltage, resulting in the formation of additional defects at bent regions. The electrical characteristics of the microwire changed with the applied bending deformation due to the introduction of defects by stress. When the injection current exceeded certain values, bright emission was observed at bent regions, ZnO microwires showed illumination at the bent region priority to straight region. The bent emission can be attributed to the effect of thermal tunneling electroluminescence appeared primarily at bent regions. The physical mechanism of the observed thermoluminescence phenomena was analyzed using theoretical simulations. The realization of electrically induced deformation and the related bending emissions in single microwires shows the possibility to fabricate special-shaped light sources and offer a method to develop photoelectronic devices.

The effect of 60Co gamma radiation on the intensity of the reemitted light at the exit from WLS-fibers of Y-11 M and O-2 M type WLS fibers and the subsequent restoration of the characteristics of irradiated fibers after exposure to room temperature are investigated. Irradiation of a low dose rate (0.048 Mrad / h) to a dose of 1 Mrad leads to a slight decrease in the intensity of the reemitted light at the exit of both types of fibers, and with a further increase in the dose, the curve does not change. When irradiated with a dose rate of 0.158 Mrad / h, the characteristics of both types of fibers deteriorate significantly. When the irradiated samples are held at room temperature, fiber characteristics are restored.
