Depth profiles of ultrashallow implanted P in Si at a dose of 3 x 10(14) cm
(-2) in the energy range of 5-80 keV were investigated by nuclear reaction
analysis (NRA) using a P-31(alpha,p)S-34 reaction. Both projected ranges (R
-p) and range straggling (Delta R-p) are in good agreement with those calcu
lated by TRIM. The accuracy of the dose measurement including reproducibili
ty of this method is better than +/-5%. This method is very useful to impro
ve the quantitative accuracy in ultrashallow depth profiling of P in combin
ation with SIMS. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
