Abstract

In this work Pulsed Electron Beam Annealing has been used to Sctivaye As implanted in (100) and (111) silicon (140 keV- 1015 cm−2 ). With a selected electron beam energy deposition profile excellent regrowth layer quality and As activation has been obtained in the 1.2–1.4 J/cm2 fluence range. As redistribution is conistent with the melting model assuming a diffusivity of 10−4 cm2/s in liquid silicon. As losses might slightly reduce the carrier concentration near the surface in the case of (100) silicon. However a shallow and highly active N+ layer have been achieved with optimized PEBA conditions.
