Dopant diffusion in silicon: A consistent view involving nonequilibrium defects

Abstract: A numerical solution of the problem of diffusion via a dual mechanism is obtained for P, As, and B diffusion in Si by solving the full system of impurity, vacancy, and self-interstitial continuity equations. The suitable constants are derived by fitting on experimental results for diffusions in both inert and oxidizing ambients, and lead to interesting information on silicon point defects at high temperature. In particular, it is found that dopant diffusion is essentially vacancy assisted, whereas self-diffusi… Show more

“…In this frame, the simplest modeling of a boron cluster is given by : B s + B i tt B sBi , where the cluster is considered as immobile and in nonequilibrium. Such cluster has been already proposed in a static form [2] or a dynamic one [3] as chosen here. This adds a sixth equation to the system.…”

“…The Classical Dopant Diffusion model [7] takes into account all the known couplings existing between the dopant and point defects (Self interstitials and Vacancies). All the charge states experimentally established for both the point defects and dopant/ defects pairs are considered.…”
