ABSTRACTThe effects of alloy fluctuations, defect densities, and short-range clustering on the resonance behavior of first and second order LO and TO Raman scattering are studied in Hg1−xCdxTe (MCT). X-values between 0.20 and 0.32 and photon energies from 2.35 to 2.7 eV were used with samples prepared by a wide range of techniques--LPE, MOCVD, MBE, bulk growth, and pulsed laser annealing. We examine the resonance behavior of the HgTe-like TO mode at ∼120 cm−1 and the mode at 133 cm−1, which has been identified as originating from the preferential clustering of 3 Hg and 1 Cd about the Te. We find that the intensity of this peak for various bulk and epitaxially grown samples is unusually large only near the E, resonance. Pulsed laser annealing with a Nd:YAG-pumped dye laser strongly suppresses this mode in all samples suggesting that extremely rapid epitaxial regrowth may inhibit the 3:1 cluster formation. In addition, the resonance-enhanced LO overtones are suppressed by the pulsed laser anneal.

AbstractCarrier concentrations exceeding 1019/cm3 in GaAs implanted with Si (2 × 1014/cm2 @ 140 keV) have been obtained by pulsed laser annealing with either a dye laser (λ = 728 nm) or a XeCl excimer laser (λ = 308 nm). Carrier concentrations were measured by plasmon Raman scattering over a wide range of anneal energy densities. Compared with capless laser annealing, much higher carrier activations were achieved when the annealing laser pulse was incident through a Si3N4 cap.

Arsenic doped amorphous silicon layers have been deposited on silicon single crystals by R.F.cathodic sputtering of a silicon target in a reactive argon-hydrogen mixture, and annealed with a Q-switched Ruby laser. Topographic analysis of the irradiated layers has shown the formation of a crater, due to an evaporation effect of material which could be related to the presence of a high concentration of Ar in the amorphous layer. RBS and Raman Spectroscopy showed that the remaining layer is not recrystallised probably due to inhibition by the residual hydrogen. However, it was found that arsenic diffuses into the monocrystalline substrate by laser induced diffusion of dopant from the surface solid source, leading to the formation of good quality P-N junctions.
