            Abstract : 
Modeling and experimental investigation of B equilibrium diffusivity and its activation in Si in the presence of other species, including ab initio calculations, are presented here. The results suggest that incorporating other species along with B into the Si substrate can achieve shallower junctions and higher B activation in semiconductor device applications.
