Influence of Ar-milling on cross-section structure of gallium arsenide

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento D

Summary

The results obtained by cross-sectional technique applied to Si+-implanted GaAs crystals, thinned by Ar+-milling, are presented. The effects of the disordered layers produced by Ar+-milling have been estimated through high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM).

Riassunto

Nel presente lavoro si mostrano alcuni risultati riguardanti lo studio del danno provocato dal bombardamento con Ar+ durante l'assottigliamento di campioni di GaAs impiantato con Si+. Gli effetti prodotti da tale tecnica sono stati osservati e valutati su sezioni trasversali dei campioni tramite microscopia elettronica ad alta risoluzione (HRTEM).

Резюме

Приводятся результаты исследования влияния Ar+-бомбаровки в процессе утончения кристаллов GaAs, имплантированных Si+. Используя трансмиссионную электронную микроскопию высокого разрешения, оцениваются эффекты, связанные с разупорядочением слоев при Ar+-бомбардировке.
