Abstract

The effect of high background doping (8×1019 - 5×1020 cm-3 ) on the diffusion of Ge and As in Si has been studied. A strong enhancement is found for As for donor concentrations higher than ~2×1020 cm-3 , but not for Ge. These experimental findings are discussed within the percolation model.
