ABSTRACTA study of the pulsed laser annealing of AuGe films on GaAs using a Nd:YAG laser has revealed differences between the surface and subsurface morfhologies. At laser energy densities lower than 1.1 J/cm2 , the surface retained the smooth, “golden” appearance of deposited AuGe films, while evidence of damage was observed below the surface. At higher energy densities, surface damage was observed. SIMS profiles of Ga and As in the AuGe layer and a laser heating model have been used to explain the presence or absence of damage in terms of the outdiffusion of As and Ga through the laser created melt which leads to the presence or absence of Ga and As at the surface and below the surface.

ABSTRACTIn an effort to understand the origin of defects earlier found to be present in p–n junctions formed by pulsed laser annealing (PLA) of ion implanted (II) semiconducting GaAs, photoluminescence (PL) studies have been carried out. PL spectra have been obtained at 4K, 77K and 300K, for both n–and p–type GaAs, for laser energy densities 0 ≤ El ≤ 0.6 J/cm2. It is found that PLA of crystalline (c−) GaAs alters the PL spectrum and decreases the PL intensity, corresponding to an increase in density of non-radiative recombination centers with increasing El. The variation of PL intensity with El is found to be different for n– and p–type material. No PL is observed from high dose (1 or 5×1015 ions/cm2 ) Sior Zn-implanted GaAs, either before or after laser annealing. The results suggest that the ion implantation step is primarily responsible for formation of defects associated with the loss of radiative recombination, with pulsed annealing contributing only secondarily.

ABSTRACTOxygen indiffusion during pulsed laser annealing of silicon has been studied using the 186 O(α,α) 186 O resonance at 3.045 MeV. Anneals were carried out with a Q–switched ruby laser, energy density of the pulses 1.5 J/cm2 , pulse width 20 ns. No evidence for oxygen indiffusion was found, neither for ion–implanted single pulse air–annealed silicon nor for a silicon wafer, cleaned with 8 laser shots in a UHV environment. In the latter case, the upper limit of the oxygen concentration was found to be 3.1 * 1018 at/cm3 , which is lower than the solid solubility limit of oxygen in silicon. The non–occurrence of indiffusion is consistent with the dissolution time of SiO2 in Si, which is orders of magnitude longer than the melt duration of the Si–substrate.

ABSTRACTWe have investigated the generation of point defects and dislocations, and the formation of dislocation loops as a function of pulse energy density in laser annealed Al, Ni, and MgO containing nickel precipitates. In the case of Al where vacancies are mobile above 200 K, mostly vacancy loops were observed at room temperature in laser melted layers. Dislocations are formed below the laser-melted layers as well as in specimens treated with pulses below the melting threshold, due to thermal stresses. In the case of Ni (where vacancies are mobile above 373 K) the microstructure in room temperature laser annealed specimens consists of primarily dislocations and their tangles. In MgO:Ni crystals, enough laser energy was absorbed to melt nickel precipitates. The dislocation structure around the precipitates and the transformation of nickel precipitates from coherent into incoherent, provided information on melting and crystal growth of these precipitates.
