Abstract

High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) has been performed on cross-sectional specimens from high dose (1016 cm−2) H+ implanted (100) GaAs (300 keV at room temperature). It was found that annealing at 500°C created small (20-50Å) loops on {111} near the projected range (Rp)(3.2 μm). At 550-600°C, voids surrounded by stacking faults, microtwins and perfect dislocations were observed near the Rp. A phenomenological model explaining the observed results is proposed.
