Study of end of range loop interactions with B+ implant damage using a boron doped diffusion layer
1995
A boron doped epilayer was used to investigate the interaction between end of range dislocation loops (formed from Ge+ implantation) and excess point defects generated from a low dose 1014/cm2 B+ implant into silicon. The boron doping spike was grown in by chemical vapor deposition at a depth of 8000 A below the surface. The intrinsic diffusivity of the boron in the doped epilayer was determined by simply annealing the as‐grown layer. The end of range (type II) dislocation loops were created using two overlapping room‐temperature Ge+ implants of 75 and 190 keV each at a dose of 1×1015/cm2. Upon annealing the amorphous layer regrew and a layer of type II dislocation loops formed ∼2300 A deep at a density of ∼8×1010/cm2. The enhancement in the buried boron layer diffusivity due to the type II loop forming Ge+ implant was observed to increase approximately between 2.5 and 5 min from 1500× to a value 2500× above the intrinsic diffusivity before dropping back to intrinsic levels after 30 min at 800 °C.
