Abstract

A series of 18 wafers were implanted with phosphorus ions covering an energy range of 25 to 180 keV at a dose of 1 × 1015 cm−2 using a Waycool end station which provides good contact between the wafers and a thermal sink. Half the wafers had {100} surfaces and the other half {111} surfaces. The morphology of the as-implanted surface, defined by the thickness of the amorphous layer and whether that layer was submerged or lay at the surface, was affected by implant energy and surface orientation. After a 550°C regrowth and an activation anneal of 30 minutes at 900°C, the defect structures were evaluated by plan and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy. A dear correlation was found between the implant morphology, the wafer orientation, and the defect structures.
