ABSTRACTThe implantation of high doses of Co in Si1−xGex alloys is investigated for several Ge concentrations. The aim of this work is to monitor phase formation, layer formation and crystalline structure of the layers. The samples are evaluated by RBS, SIMS, TEM and sheet resistance measurements. Similar as for the implantation of high doses of Co in Si, buried layer formation of CoSi2 in the Si1−x Gex alloy is observed with a concommitant expulsion of Ge out of the silicide layer.

Buried gadolinium silicide layer was prepared by ion implantation of Gd into n-type Si (100) wafer. It was shown that GdSi 2 grains have been formed during Gd + implantation. An oxygen-free continuous layer of (112) oriented GdSi 2 was obtained after irradiating the sample using a pulsed excimer laser. Comparing with conventional thermal annealing pulsed excimer laser irradiation at energy densities close to the threshold for melting Si surface layer could prepare oxygen-free GdSi 2 buried layer within a preferred region.

ABSTRACTTo measure the mechanical properties of ion implanted layers special microhardness tests with penetration depths less than 100 nm have been made. The results show that increases in hardness of up to 50 % may occur in a number of metals as a result of nitrogen ion implantation. Considerable carbon is also present in the implanted surfaces and when in the form of a distinct layer, may give an apparent softening of surfaces at high doses.
