AbstractThe effects of implantation and annealing on an AlAs-GaAs superlattice grown by OMCVD is examined with SIMS (secondary ion mass spectrometry). Several 180 keV 28Si+ implants, with doses ranging from 3 × 1013 to 3 × 1015 cm−2, are examined before and after a three hour 850 C anneal. While the implantation by itself causes some intermixing in the vicinity of the projected range, the 850 C thermal anneal induces significant mixing at depths well beyond the implant range. In the region of maximum implant damage, however, the post-thermal mixing effect is inhibited. Depth dependent diffusion lengths of Al and Si are derived from the SIMS data. The diffusion coefficient of Si is markedly enhanced in the mixed regions.

ABSTRACTClassical diffusion measurements in intermetallic compounds are often complicated by low diffusivities or low solubilities of the elements of interest. Using secondary ion mass spectrometry for measurements over a relatively shallow spatial range may be used to solve the problem of low diffusivity. In order to simultaneously obtain measurements on important impurity elements with low solubilities we have used ion implantation to supersaturate a narrow layer near the surface. Single crystal NiAl was implanted with either 12C or both 56Fe and 12C in order to investigate the measurement of substitutional (Fe) versus interstitial (C) tracer diffusion and the cross effect of both substitutional and interstitial diffusion. When C alone was implanted negligible diffusion was observed over the range of times and temperatures investigated. When both Fe and C were implanted together significantly enhanced diffusion of the C was observed, which is apparently associated with the movement of Fe. This supports one theory of dynamic strain aging in Fe alloyed NiAl.

ABSTRACTIn order to gain a better understanding of hydrogen in GaAs crystals, a Zn doped p+ GaAs wafer has been implanted with 300 keV protons (H) to a fluence of 1E16/ain and portions of the wafer have been furnace annealed at temperatures up to 600°C. The implanted H and the dopant Zn atomr were then depth profiled using secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The measurements show that the H redistributes itself in the p+ GaAs(Zn) in much the same manner as it does in n+ GaAs(Si). Movement of the implanted H begins with annealing at 200°C and proceeds rapidly with higher temperatures. However, based on the SIMS profiles, the diffusion coefficient for the H diffusing into the undamaged p+ GaAs(Zn) crystal appears to be considerably higher than that of H into n+ GaAs(Si). Electronic properties of the inplanted and annealed p+ GaAs samples have also been examined and correlated with the SINE profiles.

ABSTRACTThe chemical profiles of Zn, Ge, and Se implanted into InP at elevated temperatures have been measured with secondary ion mass spectrometry and correlated to the implantation damage as deduced from RBS/channeling measurements. An asymmetric broadening of the chemical profiles towards the bulk was found for implantation temperatures above 150°C. This effect is concluded to be due to impurity channeling during implantation.

ABSTRACTQuantitative depth profiles of impurities in LPE layers of HgCdTe have been determined using relative sensitivity factors calculated from ion implantation profiles. Standards were provided for Li, Be, B, C, F, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Cu, Ga, As, Br, and In. Relative sensitivity factors as a function of ionization potential for O2+ primary ion SIMS and electron affinity for Cs+ primary ion SIMS have been calculated in order to extend quantitation to elements not yet implanted. Examples of depth profiles for implant standards and unimplanted layers are given.

ABSTRACTIon implantation is used to fabricate waveguides in LiNbO3;. We have implanted a variety of ions into LiNbO3; at energies from 100 to 300 keV and have been able to profile their depth distributions by secondary ion mass spectrometry. We report here their depth distributions and range parameters determined from Pearson IV fitting.

ABSTRACTThe diffusion of Al in 6H-SiC during high-temperature ion implantation was studied using secondary ion mass spectrometry. A 6H-SiC wafer was implanted with 50 keV Al ions to a dose of 1.4E16 cm−2 in the high temperature range 1300°–1800TC and at room temperature. There are two diffusion regions that can be identified in the Al profiles. At high Al concentrations the gettering related peak and profile broadening are observed. At low Al concentrations, the profiles have a sharp kink and deep penetrating diffusion tails. In the first region, the diffusion coefficient is temperature independent, while in the second it exponentially increases as a function of temperature. The Al redistribution can be explained with the substitutional-interstitial diffusion mechanism.
