Damage production and annealing in 28Si-implanted CoSi,/Si(l 11) heterostructures

چکیده
The damage in epitaxial Co& films 500 nm thick grown on Si( 111) produced by roomtemperature implantation of 150 keV **Si were investigated by 2-MeV 4He channeling spectrometry, double-crystal x-ray diffractometry, and electrical resistivity measurements. The damage in the films can be categorized into two types. In lightly (heavily) damaged CoSi, the damage is in the form of point-like (extended) defects. The resistivity of lightly damaged CoSi, films rises with the dose of implantation. Electrical defects correlate well with structural ones in lightly damaged films. The resistivity of heavily damaged films flattens off while the structural defects continue to rise with the dose, so that resistivity no longer correlates with structural defects. Upon thermal annealing, lightly damaged films can fully recover structurally and electrically, whereas heavily damaged films do so only electrically. A residual structural damage remains even after annealing at 800 “C! for 60 min.

230-keV 28Si ions were implantated into Si( 100) at room temperature with doses from 1014 to 101*/cm2. The samples were analyzed by x-ray double crystal diffractometry and 2-MeV 4He ion channeling spectrometry. The implanted layer has a parallel lattice spacing equal to that of the unimplanted substrate. The perpendicular lattice spacing is larger than that of the unimplanted substrate and is p...

We used x-ray double-crystal diffractometry and MeV 4He channeling spectrometry to study quantitatively the damage produced in Si( 100) at room temperature by 230-keV 19F, 230-keV 28Si, 250-keV 40Ar, or 570-keV 13*Xe implantation. The measured defect concentration and the perpendicular strain have the same depth profile, and both are depleted near the surface compared to the Frenkel pair concen...

متن کاملAn Unusual Presolar Silicon Carbide Grain from a Supernova: Implications for the Production of Silicon-29 in Type Ii Supernovae
We report the discovery of a presolar SiC grain (KJB2-11-17-1) with unusual Si-isotopic composition. The grain has 29Si/28Si = 1.63 × solar, 30Si/28Si = 0.82 × solar, 12C/13C = 265 ( = 3 × solar), and evidence for the presence of radiogenic 44Ca from the decay of 44Ti. A comparison of these isotopic signatures with stellar models suggests an origin in a 15 M Type II supernova. It is possible to...
