ABSTRACTPulsed laser annealing has been made for Te or Znimplanted GaP and Si-implanted GaAs in argon gas atmospheres in a pressure range of 1 to 1000 bar. Optical absorption measurement indicates that pulse annealing under pressures higher than 300 bar forms surface layers with a high crystallinity without appreciable evaporation of P or As. This pressure effect is discussed from the viewpoint of diffusion length of evaporated atoms during the annealing time.

Ion-implantation has many applications in the fabrication and processing of microelectronic devices from semiconductors, but thermal treatments are required to remove defects produced by the implant and to electrically activate dopants. Recently, pulsed laser annealing has been used to activate surface layers of GaAs that have been heavily doped with 28Si+ by ion implantation, and carrier concentrations of > 1 x 1019 cm-3 have been achieved (Ref. 1). Double-crystal x-ray diffraction techniques are very sensitive to strains and defects in single crystals and provide a means for characterizing and quantifying the damage produced by ion-implantation and the subsequent relief of damage by pulsed laser annealing.

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.
