Abstract :
Ultra-shallow 28-88 nm n+/p junctions formed by PH3 and AsH3 plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) have been studied. Diodes with 4.2 nA/cm2 total junction reverse leakage current density and 2.4 nA/cm2 intrinsic junction bulk leakage current density have been obtained. It is found that the junction depths, sheet resistance and junction reverse leakage current depend on implantation carrier gases, implantation energy and annealing conditions
