Abstract:

We have carried out molecular dynamics simulations of monatomic B and octadecaborane cluster implantations into Si in order to make a comparative study and determine the advantages and drawbacks of each approach when used to fabricate shallow junctions. We have obtained and analyzed the doping profiles and the amount and morphology of the damage produced within the target. Our simulation results indicate that the use of octadecaborane clusters for the implantation process shows several advantages with respect to monatomic B beams, mainly related to the reduction of channeling and the lower amount of residual damage at the end of range.
