  • Abstract
    In this paper, we present experiments designed to show that electrical deactivation of arsenic enhances the diffusion of dopants for implanted arsenic or arsenic in-diffused from polysilicon. Results show a clear enhancement of diffusion in a nearby boron layer as well as an enhancement for the arsenic itself. Simulations and device measurements reveal this can have a considerable effect on the electrical characteristics of bipolar transistors.<>
