Modeling B Uphill Diffusion in the Presence of Ge

  • Conference paper
Simulation of Semiconductor Processes and Devices 2004

Abstract

Several models for B diffusion in Si1-x Gex have been proposed [1, 2]. In order to help discriminate between the models, an experiment was performed. Preamorphized Si wafers were implanted with varying doses of Ge, followed by a B implant. Samples were annealed at several temperatures. Ge implanted samples showed an increase in the B profile peak magnitude with anneal time, as well as its shift towards the surface. Control samples, receiving two Si implants, showed the expected enhanced B diffusion and none of the uphill diffusion behavior. Simulations accounting for the formation of GeB complex show qualitative fit to the measured profiles.
