G. Vitali et al., LOW-POWER PULSED-LASER ANNEALING OF ZN-IMPLANTED INP - FIRST ENDEAVORS(), Materials science & engineering. B, Solid-state materials for advanced technology, 38(1-2), 1996, pp. 72-75
In this paper we report a first attempt to apply the low power pulsed-
laser annealing (LPPLA) technique, already successfully used on implan
ted GaAs, to a low dose Zn-implanted InP. The aim of this work is to c
heck the LPPLA efficiency and to define, in analogy with the GaAs case
, the eventual existence for the InP of an energy window in which the
crystallinity is recovered without stoichiometric changes of the mater
ial. Reflection high energy electron diffraction analysis and electric
al measurements have revealed good crystalline reordering and a decrea
se in the sheet resistivity in the laser-annealed samples.
