Abstract

High dose antimony and tellurium implanted (100) GaAs wafers have been annealed in the solid phase under various time/temperature conditions using a conventional furnace, a rapid incoherent light source and a continuous wave CW Argon ion laser. The samples were capped with RF sputtered SiO2 prior to annealing and analysed using 2MeV He++ ion channeling to determine the solid solubility of the implanted ions. Results indicate that the Te is more soluble than Sb; highest solubilities measured were 6 × 1020cm−3 for Te and 1.3 × 1020cm−3 for Sb.
