Abstract

For compound semiconductors with the diamond structure, (111) planar channel walls contain different atomic species when viewed from different sides; thus under channeling conditions, the yields of ions backscattered from the different species oscillate with depth in opposite senses for ion beams directed towards the different channel sides. We have studied this effect for 2 MeV He ions in a (111) channel of InP crystals. The application of this channeling phenomenon to the determination of the lattice sites of solute atoms was demonstrated for implanted In and Sb atoms at different depths in GaP.
