Abstract

The influence of preamorphization and solid-phase epitaxial regrowth on indium doping profile was discussed. Premorphised silicon significantly reduces channeling during indium ion implantation, producing a much more abrupt doping profile. It is suggested that during recrystallization by thermal annealing, indium segregates in front of the moving amorphous/crystalline interface, creating a clearly visible peak in the doping profile. It was also suggested that the indium segregation phenomenon get enhanced at lower temperatures.
