Damage profiles of ultrashallow B implants in Si and the Kinchin-Pease relationship (2004)
Journal Article
van den Berg, J., Carter, G., Armour, D., Werner, M., Goldberg, R., Collart, E., …Noakes, T. (2004). Damage profiles of ultrashallow B implants in Si and the Kinchin-Pease relationship. Applied Physics Letters, 85(15), 3074-3076. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.1801671

Damage distributions resulting from 0.1-2 keV B+ implantation at room temperature into Si(100) to doses ranging from 1×1014 to 2×1016 cm-2 have been determined using high-depth-resolution medium-energy-ion scattering in the double alignment mode. For... Read More about Damage profiles of ultrashallow B implants in Si and the Kinchin-Pease relationship.

On reliability criteria and the implied cost of failure for a maintained component (2004)
Journal Article
