Abstract

Raman scattering was used to assess the lattice damage caused by Si+ implantation in InP, as well as the lattice recovery achieved after rapid thermal annealing (RTA). Semi-insulating InP was implanted with Si+ with doses in the range of 1012 to 5xl014cm”2. Raman scattering measurements show a progressive intensity reduction of the characteristic first- and second-order InP Raman peaks and an enhancement of the disorder activated modes with increasing dose. The onset of amorphization was found to be at about 1014 cm”2. RTA of the implanted samples at 875 °C for 10s results in a very good recovery of the InP lattice even for the highest dose, as confirmed by Raman scattering measurements.
