Electrical Evaluation of Defects Induced in Silicon by High Energy Boron Ion Implantation

Abstract
The suitable dose and annealing temperature for high energy ion implantation to form a retrograde well or a buried conductive layer for CMOS devices were investigated by studying I-V and C-V characteristics. Boron ions were implanted in Si at 400 and 700 keV with doses ranging from 1×1013 cm-2 to 3×1014 cm-2. It was found that the leakage currents induced by high energy boron implantation at 400 and 700 keV with a dose of less than 3×1013cm-2 could be suppressed at an unimplanted level by annealing at 950°C for 20 minutes.
