Deep levels corresponding to intrinsic and impurity-related point defects are only detected after annealing at temperatures above 200 K. In addition to divacancies, interstitial carbon, and a carbon–oxygen complex, the formation of another defect, denoted as K2, has been observed during annealing at 200–230 K in epitaxial wafers, and at 200–300 K in Czochralski grown material. The energy level of the K2 defect is located 0.36 eV above the valence band, which is very close to a previously observed level of the carbon–oxygen pair. The relative concentration of this defect is ∼10 times higher in samples implanted with Ge than in those implanted with He. Due to its formation temperature, equal concentration in epitaxial and Czochralski grown wafers, and absence in n-type samples, the K2 trap has been tentatively identified as a vacancy-related complex which probably contains boron.}, number={9}, journal={APPLIED PHYSICS LETTERS}, author={Cho, CR and Yarykin, N and Brown, RA and Kononchuk, O and Rozgonyi, GA and Zuhr, RA}, year={1999}, month={Mar}, pages={1263–1265} } @article{brown_kononchuk_rozgonyi_1999, title={Simulation of metallic impurity gettering in silicon by MeV ion implantation}, volume={148}, number={1-4}, journal={Nuclear Instruments & Methods in Physics Research.

We have investigated the temperature dependence of impurity trapping at these secondary defects, which were preformed by annealing at 900 °C. The binding energies of Fe, Ni, and Cu are greater at the vacancy-related defects than at extrinsic dislocation loops. During subsequent processing at temperatures up to 900 °C, the amount of these impurities trapped at Rp/2 increases with decreasing temperature while the amount trapped at Rp decreases, with most of the trapped metals located at Rp/2 in samples processed at temperatures ≲ 700 °C. However, intrinsic oxygen is trapped at both types of defects; this appears to have little effect on the trapping of metallic impurities at extrinsic dislocations, but may inhibit or completely suppress the trapping at vacancy-related defects.}, number={5}, journal={JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS}, author={Brown, RA and Kononchuk, O and Rozgonyi, GA and Koveshnikov, S and Knights, AP and Simpson, PJ and Gonzalez, F}, year={1998}, month={Sep}, pages={2459–2465} } @article{brown_williams_1997, title={Critical temperature and ion flux dependence of amorphization in GaAs}, volume={81}, ISSN={["0021-8979"]}, DOI={10.1063/1.365347}, abstractNote={The formation of amorphous layers in GaAs during ion bombardment at elevated temperatures, where dynamic annealing of radiation-induced defects is substantial, is shown to be extremely sensitive to the implantation temperature. For example, we have found that a temperature change of only 6 °C can change the residual damage from small clusters barely visible by conventional transmission electron microscopy and Rutherford backscattering to a thick amorphous layer. The temperature at which this occurs is strongly dependent upon the ion flux.}, number={11}, journal={JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS}, author={Brown, RA and Williams, JS}, year={1997}, month={Jun}, pages={7681–7683} } @article{brown_kononchuk_bondarenko_romanowski_radzimski_rozgonyi_gonzalez_1997, title={Metallic impurity gettering and secondary defect formation in megaelectron volt self-implanted Czochralski and float-zone silicon}, volume={144}, ISSN={["0013-4651"]}, DOI={10.1149/1.1837910}, abstractNote={Megaelectron volt (MeV) self-implantation has been investigated as a means of producing buried defect layers for gettering metallic impurities in Czochralski (CZ) and float-zone (FZ) silicon. The properties of implanted and annealed wafers were studied by generation lifetime (Zerbst) analysis of transient capacitance data, capacitance-voltage measurements, deep-level transient spectroscopy, scanning electron-beam-induced current microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, optical microscopy with preferential chemical etching, and secondary ion mass spectroscopy. We found that metallic contaminants such as Fe and Cu were effectively gettered to buried extended defect layers formed by implantation of ion fluences ≤1 x 10 15 Si cm -2 . For example, the concentration of iron in regions near the buried defects can be reduced to below 10 10 cm -3 in samples annealed at 900°C. The region above the damage layer appears to be free of electrically active defects, having very high generation lifetime values, and is therefore suitable for device processing. However, the structure and width of the buried defect band is sensitive to the implanted ion fluence and the oxygen content of the wafers. For example, the defect layers formed by high ion fluences (∼10 15 cm -2 ) are wider in FZ wafers than in CZ wafers. For fluences 1 x 10 14 cm 2 , dislocations extend from the buried damage band in both directions during annealing and are observed at depths up to 10 μm. These dislocations intersect the wafer surface in both CZ and FZ wafers, making fluences lower than ≃ 5 x 10 14 cm -2 unsuitable for device fabrication.}, number={8}, journal={JOURNAL OF THE ELECTROCHEMICAL SOCIETY}, author={Brown, RA and Kononchuk, O and Bondarenko, I and Romanowski, A and Radzimski, Z and Rozgonyi, GA and Gonzalez, F}, year={1997}, month={Aug}, pages={2872–2881} } @article{brown_williams_1997, title={Nucleation-limited amorphization of GaAs at elevated temperatures}, volume={55}, number={19}, journal={Physical Review.
