Abstract
The available data on solid solubilities of impurity elements in germanium and silicon are summarized in the form of solidus or solvus curves. New solubility data are presented for the lead-germanium, zinc-germanium, indium-germanium, antimony-silicon, gallium-silicon and aluminum-silicon systems. The correlation of the solid solubilities with the heats of sublimation and the atom sizes of the impurity elements is considered.

Ionic radius‐lattice defect model for the distribution coefficients in Ge, Si, and III‐V compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, an ionic radius-lattice defect model is presented which describes the distribution coefficient of impurities in Ge, Si, and III-V compounds as a logarithmic dependency on the impurity radius of the impurities.

Nano-Scale Depth Profiles of Electrical Properties of Phosphorus Doped Silicon for Ultra-Shallow Junction Evaluation

TL;DR: In this paper, the electrical properties and microstructure of phosphorus implanted p-type Si substrates were evaluated by four-point probe (4PP), Differential Hall Effect Metrology (DHEM), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques, after RTA 750-950°C and CO2 laser 120-140W annealing.

Getter formation in silicon by implantation of antimony ions

TL;DR: In this article, a porous silicon layer as a getter of uncontrolled impurities has been prepared by implantation of Sb+ into silicon and subsequent thermal treatments, and the lifetime of nonequilibrium charge carriers in n- and p-type silicon wafers with a get-ter layer is 3-4 times longer than that without a getters.

Electrical Properties of Pure Silicon and Silicon Alloys Containing Boron and Phosphorus

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that at high temperatures, the electron and hole mobilities of pure silicon alloys are independent of temperature, and at lower temperatures scattering by both ionized and neutral impurity centers contribute, and the mobility is largest for the more pure samples.
