Shallow p+ layer in In0.53Ga0.47As using P/Be and As/Be co-implant

Abstract: Be is implanted into an n-InGaAs epitaxial layer. Both electrical and atomic profiles indicate that Be in-diffusion occurs during annealing, resulting in a p layer thicker than that desired. A co-implant of P or As with Be significantly reduces this Be in-diffusion resulting in shallow (2000 Å) p+-n junctions with 4×1018 cm−3 surface hole concentration and 70% electrical efficiency.

“…Co-implantation, as this scheme has come to be known, has been used effectively to substantially increase the activation of carbon in InGaAs, AlGaAs and GaAs (36,37). For Group II acceptor studies, implanted Be/P and Be/As co-implants have also demonstrated increased p-type activation in InGaAs with the added side effect of causing limited Be diffusion in the implanted layer (38). Similar trends have been shown with Mg/P in GaAs and Be/P in InP and Be/P in InGaAs (39)(40)(41).…”

“…1-4 In order to obtain a shallow p ϩ layer in compound semiconductors, Be has been coimplanted with As or P. 5,6 As/Be or P/Be coimplantation in InP has been studied for device applications. 3,7,8 The activation was done with capless annealing or capped annealing.…”
