Abstract

Advanced CVD- and MBE-epitaxy allows processing of very thin epitaxial layers with extremely steep dopant gradients. As steep dopant profiles are very sensitive to temperature treatments, the impact of thermal processing from 800°C to 1000°C on the dopant redistribution in epitaxial layers was investigated.
