Abstract
A new method for the acceleration of two- and three-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation of ion implantation into crystalline targets is prese nted. The trajectory split method ensures a much better statistical re presentation in regions with a dopant concentration several orders of magnitudes smaller than the maximum. As a result, the time required to perform a simulation with comparable statistical accuracy is drastica lly reduced. The advantages of the new approach have been confirmed by a thorough statistical analysis.
