ABSTRACTThe effects of ramp-up rate during rapid thermal processing of ultra-shallow boron implants have been investigated. Ramp-up rates were varied between 25 °C and 200 °C for two types of anneals: soak anneals and spike anneals. It was found that the ramp-up rate had very little influence on junction depth or electrical activation for both types of anneals. Spike anneals did produce shallower profiles than soak anneal for a comparable electrical activation and may be an option for future processes.

ABSTRACTSilicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers made by standard energy (150–200 keV) Separation by IMplantation of Oxygen (SIMOX) processes have shown great promise for meeting the needs of radiation-hard microelectronics. However, if SIMOX material is to become a competitive substrate material for manufacturing commercial integrated circuits, the cost of the SIMOX wafers must be greatly reduced. The low energy SIMOX (LES) process accomplishes the needed reduction in cost by producing ultrathin layers which require much lower ion doses. These ultrathin layers are necessary for the next generation of commercial ultra high density CMOS integrated circuits, and must be of very high quality to be utilized for commercial applications. In this paper we discuss characterization of ultrathin LES structures.

AbstractWe demonstrate the use of low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) as a tool for studying dis-location formation in low-Ge-content SiGe films on Si(001) and silicon-on-insulator. Compared to TEM, sample preparation for LEEM consists only of conventional surface cleaning. Yet, because of its sensitivity to local variations in surface strain on Si(001), LEEM can detect dislocations at the earliest stages of strain relaxation. In identically prepared SiGe films, the typical dislocation extends over the entire viewable region of several hundred microns in SiGe/Si, but is less than 100 microns in SiGe/SOI. In addition, dislocation cross-slip and threading segments are common in SiGe/SOI, but virtually non-existent in SiGe/Si. We have also observed dislocation formation in real-time during high temperature annealing. Preliminary results appear to demonstrate dislocation multiplication and blocking at a perpendicular glide plane. The applicability of LEEM to strain relaxation in other Si-based systems will be discussed.
