  • Abstract
    BF2+ implant was performed on Ge1-xSnx epitaxial layers where x is 0.03 or 0.053. The implant depth for BF2+ implant into Ge1-xSnx alloys is larger as compared to the same implant into Ge. It is observed that the diffusion of B during a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) is substantially suppressed by the presence of Sn. Sheet resistance measurements show that the B atoms can be activated at 400 °C in Ge1-xSnx alloys.
