The distribution of damage in Si and He implanted GaAs has been studie
d using differential reflectance (DR) spectroscopy. This novel and rel
atively simple optical technique has high sensitivity and allows the m
easurement of damage distributions in a low dose range which is diffic
ult to access by other techniques (1 x 10(10)-3 x 10(14) cm(-2)). The
effect of crystal orientation ((100), (110) and (111) directions) on t
he damage profiles has also been measured. The measured damage profile
s, obtained by successively etching the sample and measuring the DR si
gnal, have been compared with TRIM simulations. The magnitude and shap
e of the damage profiles were found to be very sensitive to crystal or
ientation.
