Regrowth rates and dopant activation of Sb+-implanted Si-Ge alloys

Epitaxial regrowth and dopant activation of Sb-implanted Si and Si0.93Ge0.07 were investigated with ion channeling techniques and transmission electron microscopy. The presence of Sb greatly enhanced the regrowth rate of both Si and Si0.93Ge0.07. The initial crystallinity of Si0.93Ge0.07 was fully r...

Zusammenfassung:Epitaxial regrowth and dopant activation of Sb-implanted Si and Si0.93Ge0.07 were investigated with ion channeling techniques and transmission electron microscopy. The presence of Sb greatly enhanced the regrowth rate of both Si and Si0.93Ge0.07. The initial crystallinity of Si0.93Ge0.07 was fully recovered after furnace annealing at 500–550 °C. Approximately 95% of Sb atoms were found on substitutional sites and most of them were electrically active.
