Abstract
AbstractThe Fe depth distribution has been measured in semi-insulating (SI) InP implanted with Si as a function of implant temperature and post-implant annealing technique (either furnace annealing or rapid thermal annealing). Depth profiles obtained by secondary ion mass spectrometry and Rutherford backscattering measurements of the damage demonstrate that Fe redistributes into regions of residual damage during thermal processing. These results are interpreted in terms of implantation-related damage effects and the stoichiometry imbalance induced by the Si implantation.
