Abstract

UV laser photochemical dissociation and laser enchanced thermal dissociation have been used to generate free metal dopant species from a variety of organometallic molecules near a semiconductor substrate surface. Simultaneous laser annealing via a localised melt phase allows diffusion driven implantation of the metal atoms and subsequent electrical activation in the regrowing material. High levels of dopant concentration and activation are readily achieved in this way.

Results will be presented on doping of silicon by boron using an ArF laser. These will include data on junction depths, number density and carrier density as a function of depth and interpretation of the data in terms of calculated temperature profiles.

The possibility of tailoring junction characteristics by control of laser and gas flow parameters will be considered with preliminary experimental data.
