Abstract
A systematic study on the fluence (5 × 108 − 4 × 1014 cm−2) dependence of ion-implanted As diffusion in relaxed Si1 − xGex alloys (with x
= 0.2, 0.35 and 0.5) and silicon has been performed by the modified
radiotracer and secondary ion mass spectrometry techniques. With
fluences above 4 × 1011 cm−2 a clear fluence-dependent enhancement in arsenic diffusion was noted for Si1 − xGex.
In case of arsenic-implanted silicon such fluence dependency was not
observed. This can be assigned to enhanced implantation-induced damage
formation and more deficient radiation damage recovery of SiGe.
