Laser induced redistribution of ion implanted and surface deposited B in silicon: A SIMS study

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5837432

SIMS investigations have shown that pulsed laser annealing of ion implanted and surface deposited silicon leads to significant dopant redistribution. Comparison of calculated profiles to SIMS determined profiles provides strong evidence that the laser annealing mechanism involves melting of the crystal, diffusion of dopants in liquid silicon, followed by epitaxial regrowth.
