Abstract
The primary beam energy and species (Cs^+^, Ar^+^) dependence of ultra low energy SIMS depth profiles of ultra‐shallow boron implants into CVD grown diamond is investigated in this paper. The data are compared with TRIM simulation of the 5 keV ^11^B^+^ implant. Cs^+^ profiles (1 keV, 30°) appear to be seriously distorted by atomic mixing and recoil implantation due to the high mass of the probe. Ar^+^ profiles (300 eV–1 keV, 0°) are less distorted, but both Cs^+^ and Ar^+^ tend to produce significant tails. The Ar^+^ SIMS profiles produce implants which appear to be shallower than the TRIM simulation. We show that profiling using Ar^+^ with energies between 0.3 and 1 keV can be used to extrapolate a profile to zero beam energy. The extrapolated data indicate a centroid between 5 and 10 nm from the surface, whereas TRIM predicts 11 nm. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

For that purpose, high dose BF 3 was implanted in n-type silicon wafers using PLAD. The as implanted material was investigated by high resolution TEM, measured
We present our investigations on the clustering, diffusion and electrical activation of ultra-low-energy ( 51 keV) implanted boron in crystalline silicon during annealing in the temperature range between 900 and 12008C. We show that during the initial stage of the annealing, boron is bound to non-di
Numerous experimental studies for near-surface analyses of B in Si have shown that the B distribution within the top few nanometers is distorted by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) depth profiling with O 2 -flooding or normal incidence O 2 bombardment. Furthermore, the presence of surface oxid
