  • Abstract
    Advantages of multiple-pulse Laser Thermal Annealing (LTA) with a moderate energy fluence on preamorphized silicon are described. Re-distribution of laser annealed boron junction during subsequent RTA is also studied. A method to optimize the multiple-pulse LTA condition is proposed. It is also demonstrated that Hall analysis can be used as a quick evaluation tool of the integrity of the junctions.
