摘要
The role of fluorine atoms on the transformation of surface Si into an amorphous layer after the implantation of molecular BF2 ions has been investigated by the electron spin resonance (EPR) technique. The critical dose of BF2 ions necessary to amorphize the Si at a particular energy is determined experimentally from EPR data analysis. The results reveal that in the ion energy range of 25-150 keV, the critical dose required for BF2 ions was much lower (less-than-or-equal-to 2.5 x 10(15) ions cm-2) than compared to the critical dose for B+. The additional damage produced by heavy fluorine atoms, split from BF2 ions, is found responsible for providing the necessary level of amorphization. As an application of BF2+ implantation, shallow p+ -n junctions with junction depth and sheet resistivity as low as 0.20-mu-m and 100-OMEGA square-1, respectively, were fabricated by two-step annealing.
