    Notes: Ion beam synthesized polycrystalline semiconducting FeSi2 on Si(001) has been investigated by transmission measurements at temperatures between 10 and 300 K. The existence of a minimum direct band gap was demonstrated and its variation with the temperature was studied by means of a three-parameter thermodynamic model and the Einstein model. Band tail states and states on a shallow impurity level were found to give rise to the absorption below the fundamental edge. The presence of an Urbach exponential edge was shown and the temperature dependence of the Urbach tail width was also studied based on the Einstein model. A strong structural disorder associated with grain boundaries between and within the FeSi2 grains and their related defects was found to be the dominant contribution at room temperature. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The thermal interdiffusion on the group-V sublattice in InxGa1−xAs-InxGa1−xAsyP1−y quantum-well structures has been characterized for samples annealed either with silicon nitride encapsulation or under a phosphine overpressure in two different metalorganic vapor-phase-epitaxy reactors under different phosphine overpressures. Under all conditions the interdiffusion lengths were found to be comparable, with only small effects due to the phosphine overpressure. This suggests that interdiffusion results obtained from silicon nitride capped samples can be applied to the interdiffusion that occurs during growth conditions. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Both as-implanted and annealed ion-beam-synthesized semiconducting FeSi2 layers on Si(001) substrates have been investigated by optical transmission measurements and transmission electron microscopy. The effect of annealing temperature on the minimum direct band gap and the Urbach tail width was found to be associated with the growth of β grains, the formation of a well-defined polycrystalline layer, and the removal of implantation-induced damage during the subsequent thermal annealing. The direct band gap and the Urbach tail width in the sample first annealed at a temperature to produce a metallic α phase, followed by a prolonged annealing at a temperature to produce a β phase, were also studied. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Edge termination of Schottky barrier diodes has been achieved using 30 keV Ar+ ions implanted at a dose of 1×1015 cm−2. The reverse-bias leakage current is reduced by 2 orders of magnitude following postimplant annealing at a temperature of 600 °C. The thermal evolution of the implantation induced defects was monitored using positron annihilation spectroscopy and deep-level transient spectroscopy. Two distinct defect regions are observed using the positron technique. The depth of the first is consistent with the range of the implanted Ar+ ions and consists of clustered vacancies. The second extends to ∼250 nm, well beyond the range of the incident ions, and is dominated by point defects, similar in structure to Si–C divacancies. An implant damage related deep level, well defined at Ec−Et=0.9 eV, is observed for both the as-implanted and the 600 °C annealed sample. The effect of annealing is a reduction in the concentration of active carrier trapping centers. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Strained layer semiconductor heterostructures produced by molecular-beam epitaxy or metalorganic chemical vapor deposition growth are limited in thickness by relaxation producing dislocations, if a critical thickness tc is exceeded. We propose that, for a given thickness, strain values up to twice as large may be induced by post-growth processing with selective diffusion of the elemental constituents of the heterostructure.

    Notes: An analysis of silicon on insulator structures obtained by single and multiple implants by means of Raman scattering and photoluminescence spectroscopy is reported. The Raman spectra obtained with different excitation powers and wavelengths indicate the presence of a tensile strain in the top silicon layer of the structures. The comparison between the spectra measured in both kinds of samples points out the existence in the multiple implant material of a lower strain for a penetration depth about 300 nm and a higher strain for higher penetration depths. These results have been correlated with transmission electron microscopy observations, which have allowed to associate the higher strain to the presence of SiO2 precipitates in the top silicon layer, close to the buried oxide. The found lower strain is in agreement with the better quality expected for this material, which is corroborated by the photoluminescence data.

    Notes: Photoluminescence coupled with repetitive thermal annealing has been used to determine the diffusion coefficients for intermixing in InxGa1−xAs/GaAs quantum wells and to study the subsequent effects of ion implantation on the intermixing. It is shown that following ion implantation there is a very fast interdiffusion process, which is independent of the implanted ion and that is thought to be due to the rapid diffusion of interstitials created during the implantation. Following this rapid process, it was found that neither gallium nor krypton ions had any effect on the subsequent interdiffusion coefficient. Following arsenic implantation in addition to the initial damage related process, an enhanced region of interdiffusion was observed with a diffusion coefficient that was an order of magnitude greater than that of an unimplanted control wafer. This enhanced process is thought to be due to the creation of group III vacancies by the arsenic atoms moving onto group V lattice sites. This fast process was present until the structure had broadened by about 75 A(ring) when the diffusion coefficient returned to the unimplanted control value. The activation energy for the interdiffusion was measured over the temperature range 1050–750°C and a value of 3.7±0.1 eV was measured. This was found to be independent of the implanted ion.

    Notes: Interdiffusion in InGaAs/GaAs quantum wells has been studied using photoluminescence to follow the development of the diffusion with time in a single sample. Two distinct regimes are seen; a fast initial diffusion and a second steady-state diffusion. The steady-state diffusion was found to be dependent on the depth of the quantum well from the surface and to correlate with published data on the indiffusion of gallium vacancies into gallium arsenide.

    Notes: We describe here the application of photoconductive frequency resolved spectroscopy to determine excess carrier lifetime distributions and carrier kinetics in SIMOX (separation by implanting oxygen) material. In order to evaluate the influence of the implant and anneal processes on the quality of the silicon overlayer we have also analyzed unprocessed bulk silicon, high temperature annealed bulk silicon and as-implanted SIMOX material. Our photoconductive frequency resolved spectroscopy results reveal that the SIMOX layers have a higher density of defects than standard device quality silicon substrates. Characteristic parameters of the dominant traps in these materials have been obtained from Arrhenius plots of the lifetime distributions. The defects found in these SIMOX layers are shown to be formed during the high temperature anneal stage of the material production.

    Notes: The analysis of photoconductive frequency-resolved spectroscopy is developed for variable temperature measurements. It is shown that when the excess carrier kinetics is dominated by carrier trapping the technique can be used to obtain the major trap parameters. This analysis is applied as an example to polycrystalline silicon on insulator on silicon films and a dominant trap with an activation energy of 70 meV is identified.
