Abstract :
Beam power per unit area and exposure time are the predominant factors in defining implant anneal conditions for the multiple scan electron beam annealing technique. A theoretical analysis is presented which agrees with experimental results. Carrier concentration profiles confirm that the implant becomes electrically active without diffusion.
