Abstract
Mg ions were implanted in Cr‐doped semi‐insulating GaAs at 120 keV to doses of 3×1012 to 1×1015/cm2 at room temperature. Surface‐carrier concentrations and mobilities have been measured at various postimplantation anneal temperatures using the van der Pauw Hall‐effect/sheet‐resistivity technique. Detailed profiles of depth as a function of ion dose and anneal temperature are presented. Also, the results of a study of the integrated intensity of Mg emission at various annealing temperatures and of depth profiles of the relative emission intensity of the ions obtained by the photoluminescence method are compared with results obtained from electrical measurements. In addition, compensation‐level analysis and a comparison of theoretical diffusion profiles with depth‐profile data have been made. p‐type layers have been produced for all except the lowest dose of 3×1012/cm2 after capping only (no postimplantation annealing) with pyrolytic Si3N4 encapsulants. Subsequent annealing up to 600 °C does not alter the e...

Doping of III–V compound semiconductors by ion implantation

TL;DR: The use of ion implantation to dope III-V compound semiconductors is growing in importance because it can be applied in the manufacture of discrete devices such as LEDs, lasers and FETs and increasingly, in the production of both linear and digital integrated circuits as mentioned in this paper.

Rapid thermal annealing of Mg++As+ dual implants in GaAs

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of dual implantation on the electrical properties of GaAs have been studied and a peak hole concentration approaching 4×1019 cm−3 was recorded for the dual implant annealed at 900 °C for 30 s.

Correlation of electrical carrier and atomic profiles of Mg implants in GaAs

TL;DR: A comparative study of secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and electrical profiles for S-implanted GaAs has been made in this article, where it is suggested that unannealed implantation damage and S precipitation are responsible for the low electrical activation of S implants in GaAs at high dose, and residual surface defects may be a limiting factor at low dose.

Photoluminescence from Mg‐implanted, epitaxial, and semi‐insulating InP

TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of Mg implant in InP was studied, where Mg ions were implanted at an energy of 120 keV into vapor phase epitaxial (VPE) and Fe-doped, semi-insulating (SI) InP at doses of 1×1012-1×1015 cm−2 at room temperature.

The incorporation and characterisation of acceptors in epitaxial GaAs

TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic study of the incorporation of shallow acceptor dopants in highly refined VPE and LPE gallium arsenide has been carried out, which has resulted in an identification catalogue for the various elements which has been compared with the assignments of other workers.
