Abstract
GaAs (100) crystals were implanted with 100 keV S+ to a dose of 3×1015 cm−2 in a nonchanneling direction at room temperature, and treated with rapid thermal annealing (RTA). He+ Rutherford backscattering and particle-induced X-ray emission in channeling mode in combination with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to study the damage and the lattice location of S atoms. It is revealed that the RTA at 950 °C for 10 sec has resulted in a very good recovery of crystallinity with a few residual defects in the form of dislocation loops, and a very high substitutionality (~90%). The activation efficiency and the Hall mobility of the implanted samples are found to be low after the electrical measurements. Based on these results an extended dopant diffusion effect for the residual defects and a correlation between the electrical properties and defect complexes are suggested.
