ABSTRACTSingle crystals and epitaxial films of SiC - 4H and 6H were implanted at an energy of 40 and 90 KeV by ions of Al at various temperatures and high dose.The implanted layers were studied before and after annealing by Raman scattering, Auger electron spectroscopy and SIMS. Results of this investigation show intensive graphitization of the implanted layer surface, the formation of great associations of defects in the implanted layer and shallow defects. It was found that recrystallization of the implanted layer pushes out a considerable part of aluminum atoms. The nature of the processes in silicon carbide during implantation and annealing is discussed.

ABSTRACTLow and high dose hafnium imolanted beryllium samoles have been prepared at room temperature by ion implantation of beryllium commercial foils and single crystals. These samples have been studied before and after annealing with the time differential perturbed angular correlation method (TDPAC) and with Rutherford backscattering and channeling techniques. A new metastable system has been discovered in TDPAC-measurements in a low dose hafnium implanted beryllium foil annealed at 500°C. Channeling measurements show that the hafnium atoms after annealing, are in the regular tetrahedral sites but dislocated from the previous position occupied after implantation. The formation of this system is connected with the redistribution of oxygen in a thin layer under the surface. This effect does not take place precisely at the same temperature in foils and in single crystals.

AbstractThin sputtered ceramic films deposited on ceramic substrates were subjected to either Kr+ or Xe+ ion bombardment for ion beam mixing studies in ceramic-ceramic systems. The amount of mixing if any was evaluated from Rutherford backscattering and Auger electron spectroscopy. In some instances ceramic films were deposited on epitaxial films or single crystal substrates for ion channeling analysis. No significant mixing was observed in any of the systems with ZrC. However, analysis of the interface in Si3N4/ SiC system indicates appreciable mixing and ion beam induced damage to the substrate. The mixing appears to be dose dependent for heavier ions.

AbstractThe technique of Auger Electron Spectroscopy has been investigated for the purposes of detecting contamination levels in high dose ion implants. Historically, Auger sensitivities have been considered to be on the order of 1%. This is due to the rather large secondary electron background and the various combinations of electron beam and detector noise that may occur. In this study, it is shown that the use of background subtraction and integration of the resulting EN(E) Auger peak will result in considerably better sensitivities for the case of ion implants in silicon.

ABSTRACTNH3-plasma treatment has been used for passivation of native-oxide-contaminated GaAs surface. Ex situ band-gap photoluminescence(PL) measurement shows enhanced intensity for the treated surfaces in direct plasma. Auger electron spectroscopy(AES) shows that the treated surface contains nitrogen atoms but no arsenic atoms, which leads us to speculate that the graded GaN thin layer was formed on the surface. Long-term stability of the enhanced PL intensity is attributed to the formation of GaN on the surface.
