Abstract

The damage and strain produced in a nearly pseudomorphic Ge0.1 Si0.90 film on Si(100) by implantation of 320 keV28Si+ ions at 40 to 150°C and doses from 1 to 30 x 1014/cm2 have been measured by MeV4He channeling spectrometry and high resolution x-ray diffractometry. Both the implantation-induced damage and strain are sensitive to the implantation temperatures. The damage as characterized by channeling decreases with the temperature of implantation for all doses and becomes minimal at 150°C. The implantation-induced perpendicular strain does likewise, but an excess of about 6% of its intrinsic strain remains at the strain maximum even at 150°C.
