Abstract:Float zone silicon single crystalline wafers are submitted to He ion implantations at various energy levels and fluences in the ranges 40 to 120 keV and 1016 to 1017 cm−2, respectively. Cavities are formed after annealing at 900°C for 1 h in argon. Al-Si gettering results from the deposition of a backside 1 µm thick Al wafer and annealing at 900'C for 4 h in argon. The wafers are voluntarily contaminated by 1014 to 1017 cm−3nickel atoms and diffusion length of minority carriers is determined by SPV technique a… Show more
