摘要
The formation of cavity microstructures in silicon following helium implantation (10 or 40 keV; 1x10(15), 1x10(16) and 5x10(16) cm(-2)) and annealing (800 degrees C) is investigated by means of Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry and Channeling (RBS/C), and Elastic Recoil Detection (ERD). The processes of cavity nucleation and growth are found to depend critically on the implanted He concentration. For a maximum peak He concentration of about 5x10(20) cm(-3) the resulting microstructure appears to contain large overpressurized bubbles whose formation cannot be accounted by the conventional gas-release model and bubble-coarsening mechanisms predicting empty cavities. The trapping of Fe and Cu at such cavity regions is studied by Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS).
