Abstract

Indium precipitation in Si after ion implantation and rapid thermal annealing was studied using plan-view and cross-sectional TEM and SIMS analysis. The precipitates were found to be single crystalline with the bulk In body-centered tetragonal lattice based on periodicity data in two dimensions. The orientation relationship between the precipitate and Si lattice has been derived to be:
