ABSTRACTThe damage production in GaAs, InAs, GaP and InP implanted with different mass ions in the temperature region 80K to 450K has been investigated by means of the RBS/channeling technique at 300K and 100K as well as by optical transmission and reflection measurements. The influence of the implantation parameters on the damage production as well as the differences observed for the various materials are discussed. Further, results concerning the electrical activation after rapid thermal annealing of GaAs and InP implanted at different temperatures are presented.

AbstractThe effects of vacancy-type defects induced by ion implantation on the electricalactivation of implanted phosphorus by rapid thermal annealing (RTA) are investigated using the positron annihilation technique, secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) and the spreading resistance (SR) method. P÷ ions are implanted into bare Si wafers and into Si through Si02 films at 700 keV with doses of the order of l×1013 cm−2. After implantation, rapid thermal annealing (RTA) is performed at temperatures between 600 and 1100 °C for 20 sec. The result shows that vacancy-type defects compensate the electrical-activation of P implanted into Si and also recoiled- oxygen is affected on the electrical-activation of P. The species of main defects for compensating the electrical-activation is identified as a divacancy (V2) from the lifetime of positrons. Effects of recoiled oxygen on the electricalactivation are attributed to the formation of vacancy-oxygen complexes just below the SiO2/Si interface and a resultant decrease in the diffusion length of vacancy-type defects.

AbstractDefects induced by ion implantation and subsequent annealing are found to either promote or suppress layer intermixing in Ill-V compound semiconductor superlattices (SLs). We have studied this intriguing relationship by examining how implantation and annealing conditions affect defect creation and their relevance to intermixing. Layer intermixing has been induced in SLs implanted with 220 keV Si+ at doses < 1 × 1014 ions/cm2 and annealed at 850°C for 3 hrs or 1050°C for 10 s. Upon furnace annealing, significant Si in-diffusion is observed over the entire intermixed region, but with rapid thermal annealing layer intermixing is accompanied by negligible Si movement. TEM showed that the totally intermixed layers are centered around a buried band of secondary defects and below the Si peak position. In the nearsurface region layer intermixing is suppressed and is only partially completed at ≤1 × 1015 Si/cm2. This inhibition is correlated to a loss of the mobile implantation-induced defects, which are responsible for intermixing.

ABSTRACTDouble-diffused shallow junctions have been formed by ion implantation of both phosphorus and arsenic ions into silicon substrates and rapid thermal annealing. Experimental results on defect removal, impurity activation and redistribution, effects of Si preamorphization, and electrical characteristics of Ti-silicided junctions are presented.

Tungsten thin films are deposited with a triode sputtering system in order to obtain an absorbing layer for X-ray masks. The mechanical stress is studied as a function of different pressure and RF power conditions during deposition. Rapid thermal annealing at different temperatures and durations is performed in order to produce films under low compressive stress. We observe that the stress changes occur over the time scale of seconds at the annealing temperature and that the corresponding activation energies are low (60 meV). Grain growth in a preferred orientation explains the observed changes in stress. The magnitude in the change of stress is in good agreement with a model proposed by Hoffman et al. relating the stress to grain size and grain boundary dimensions. [Journal translation]

AbstractRaman scattering was applied to study mixing of GaAs/AlAs superlattices. Different implantation ions and doses were used. The evolution from partially amorphous to completely amorphous and from partially mixed to completely mixed structures was observed. Rapid thermal annealing caused recrystallization of the damaged material. Different types of structures were obtained, depending on the implantation doses and species of ions. Completely mixed crystalline alloys could be obtained only for high implantation doses.
