Abstract

The issue of point-defect injection during antimony precipitation in silicon is addressed in the present investigation. By studying the effect of Sb precipitation in an Sb-box distribution on the diffusion of B or Sb in deeper-lying spikes it is unambiguously concluded that Si self-interstitials are injected during the precipitation process. Possible causes of the self-interstitial injection are discussed.
