Abstract

ABSTRACT150keV Si* ions and 160keV P* ions were implanted at 200°C with doses ranging from 5x1013 to 1x1015/cm2 to study the effect of dual implantations on the electrical properties of Fe doped InP. Samples encapsulated with Si3N4 films of about 1000Å were annealed in a halogen tungsten lamp RTA system under flowing N2 at different temperatures from 700 to 900°C for 5s. It has been found that Si*+P* dual implantations into InP can result in an enhanced activation, particularly significant at high dose of implantation. The maximum dopant activation and average electron mobility for Si*+P* dual implants at a dose of 1×1015/cm2 are 70% and 750cm2/vs, which corresponds to a peak electron concentration of 5×1019/cm3 while that for Si* single implant at the same dose are 29% and 870cm2/vs, which corresponds to a peak electron concentration of 1.2×10 19/cm3. The improvement of the electrical properties is discussed in terms of amphoteric behavior of silicon in InP.
