Abstract :
“Point”-defects and defect agglomerates are created by high energy ion implantation into Si and subsequent annealing. These defects are investigated by gettering of metal atoms and analysing the metal distribution. Beside a gettering layer at the projected ion range (Rp) where most of the implanted atoms are located another gettering layer is also found at the Rp/2-position. This R p/2-layer is related to implantation defects-not to the implant atoms. It is thermally stable up to a temperature of more than 1000°C
