Abstract
In this paper, the recent progress and applications of ion beam defect engineering (IBDE) are reported. IBDE in silicon shows that it can be used for (1) the reduction of secondary defects created by the dopant -ion implantation, (2) the gettering of F atoms from the B doped regio ns in BF2 implanted silicon; (3) the reduction of B diffusion in BF2 i mplanted silicon. IBDE applications in optoelectric crystals are also investigated. Waveguide can be formed in LiNbO3 by MeV Cu ion implanta tion and in KTiOPO4 (KTP) by multi-energy (MeV) He ion implantation. M echanisms and trends of IBDE in the future are also discussed.
