Dopant - Extended Defects Interactions: The Case of Aluminum
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 March 2011
Abstract
We studied the Al redistribution in the vicinity of a well-defined EOR band formed by Ge pre-amorphization. Aluminum was implanted in Si at 3 MeV to a low dose before the preamorphization step in order to localize the as-implanted Al peak away from the EOR band. Rapid thermal annealings were performed in the temperature range [900-1000°C] for times varying from 20 s up to 200 s. The results of this study evidence a clear accumulation of the dopant on the extended defects, indicating a direct trapping mechanism of the dopant by the EOR.
