Silicon–Platinum Silicide Schottky Barriers with a Highly-Doped Surface Layer

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

The spectral characteristic of infrared silicon–platinum silicide Schottky barrier photodetectors is shifted to the long wavelength region due to a highly-doped surface silicon layer produced by recoil boron implantation. The dependence of the resulting highly-doped layer parameters on high-energy boron-ion implantation regimes is studied experimentally. Energy-band diagrams and reduction of the barrier height are calculated for p-Si–PtSi structures with highly-doped surface layers produced by molecular-beam epitaxy and recoil implantation.
