Vv. Kozlovskii et Va. Kozlov, Distribution of hydrogen in silicon and silicon carbide following high-temperature proton irradiation, SEMICONDUCT, 33(12), 1999, pp. 1265-1266
The distribution of hydrogen in Si and SiC following high-temperature proto
n irradiation (T-irr=20-700 degrees C) is studied by secondary-ion mass spe
ctrometry. It is shown that the hydrogen concentration profile in SiC depen
ds weakly on irradiation temperature. In Si appreciable alteration of the c
oncentration profile is observed already at T(irr)similar or equal to 300 d
egrees C, and the profile completely loses its concentration gradient at T(
irr)similar or equal to 700 degrees C. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physi
