ABSTRACTRapid thermal annealing (4−7s) of 28Si and 9Be implants in VPE-grown In0.53Ga0.47As has produced n- and p-type active layers with controlled doping levels between 1017 and 3×1018 cm−3. The multiple-implant schedules were based on Rp and ΔR data derived from SIMS measurements on single-energy implants. The activated n- and p-type layers have a good surface morphology and 300 K mobilities of 3000–7000 and 100–200 cm2 /V−s, respectively. Data on implant schedules, electrical characteristics, carrier concentration profiles, and Rp /ΔRp information are presented.

Carrier concentration and mobility were measured for intrinsic cubic InN and GaN, and for Si-doped cubic GaN as a function of temperature. Metallic n-type conductivity was found for the InN, while background p-type conductivity was observed for the intrinsic GaN layer. Doping the cubic GaN with Si two regimes were observed. For low Si-doping concentrations, the samples remain p-type. Increasing the Si-doping level, the background acceptors are compensated and the samples became highly degenerated n-type. From the carrier concentration dependence on temperature, the activation energy of the donor and acceptor levels was determined. Attempts were made to determine the scattering mechanisms responsible for the behavior of the mobility as a function of temperature.

AbstractMolecular ion S2+ and SiFn+ implantations into GaAs have been investigated to form very thin active layers. After implantation, the transient annealing (TA) and furnace annealing (FA) were used. The measurements of activation efficiency, mobility, carrier concentration profiles and PL spectra were carried out. The experiments show that after TA, the activation efficiency, mobility and carrier distribution are almost the same between samples implanted with S+ at an energy of 50KeV to a dose of 3×1013cm−2 and S+2 at 100KeV to 1.5×1013cm−2. It shows that the damage of S2-implanted samples can be removed by TA, and a very thin active layer can be formed by the implantation of S2+ at 50KeV. For SiFn-implanted samples, the activation efficiency and mobility. decrease with increase of the implanted ion mass. As+ co-implantation into SiF-implanted samples has been used to improve both activation efficiency and mobility. After comparison with the properties of the SiFt implantation, S2+implantation is more acceptable to form thin active layers.

ABSTRACTA scanned cw Nd: YAG laser was used to anneal ion-implanted GaAs and InP wafers. Measurements show that electrical activation is greater for p-type than for n-type dopants in GaAs, while in InP, the opposite is observed. A simple Fermi-level pinning model is presented to explain not only the electrical properties we have measured, but also those observed by other workers. We have fabricated GaAs and InP solar cells with junctions formed by ion implantation followed by laser annealing. The GaAs cells have much better conversion efficiencies than the InP cells, and this difference can be explained in terms of the model.

AbstractIn this paper we report on the first GaN p-n diodes fabricated by Mg ion implantation doping of n-type GaN epitaxial layers. Ion implantation was performed at room temperature. Implantation dose ranged from 1013 to 2 × 1016 cm2. After implantation samples were annealed for 10-15 s at a wide temperature interval from 600°C to 1200°C in flowing N2 to form p-type layers. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy with electron beam induced current and back scattered electron modes as well as current-voltage and capacitance-voltage measurements were used to study structural and electrical characteristics of the Mg implanted p-n structures.

AbstractPlasma processing is an essential part for the fabrication of GaAs ICs.It was found that the exposure of sulfur doped n-type GaAs layers to a plasma of helium, oxygen, or nitrogen changed their electrical characteristics without introducing crystalline damage, as observed by electron diffraction measurments or etching.Exposure to a plasma depletes the surface carrier concentration but the mobility remains unchanged.Compared to O2 and N2 the helium plasma has the largest effect on the GaAs surface.Exposure of S-doped GaAs layers to a He plasma at 350°C produces two new deep levels at 840-nm and in the region between 863 and 872-nm.These levels were not observed for a He plasma exposure at room temperature or for O2 plasma exposure at 350°C.

We report the electrical properties of the InSbN alloys fabricated by two-step implantation of nitrogen ions into InSb wafers, characterized by Hall measurements. The alloy with higher implanted dose shows lower electron concentration due to the acceptor nature of nitrogen. At temperatures below 150 K, the electron concentration does not change and follows an exponential relation at above 200 K. The Hall mobility in all samples monotonically decreases with the increase of temperature, indicating the phonon dominating scattering mechanism. The annealing results reveal that annealing temperatures up to 598 K make the carrier concentration lower due to the reduction of donor-type defects caused by ion implantation and the acceptor nature of nitrogen.
