An economical fabrication technique for SIMOX using plasma immersion ion implantation

Abstract

Buried oxide layers in Si were fabricated using non-mass analyzed plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII). The implantation was carried out by applying a large negative bias to a Si wafer immersed in an oxygen plasma and a dose of 3×1017 cm-2 of oxygen was implanted in about three minutes. Cross section transmission electron microscopy (XTEM) and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RES) were used to characterize the wafers. Our results indicate that a continuous buried oxide layer with a single crystal silicon overlayer was synthesizedpublished_or_final_versio
