ecoil distribut<strong>ion</strong>s <strong>and</strong> the As implant pr<strong>of</strong>ile are shown for comparison.<br />

The dose dependent peak posit<strong>ion</strong> <strong>of</strong> the As implant is indicated by<br />

arrows.<br />

Figure 5.3 SIMS depth pr<strong>of</strong>iles taken under identical sputter eros<strong>ion</strong> condit<strong>ion</strong>s, for<br />

As implanted to a dose <strong>of</strong> 8 × 10 13 cm -2 into a virgin Si crystalline<br />

sample <strong>and</strong> to doses <strong>of</strong> 5 × 10 13 cm -2 <strong>and</strong> 1 × 10 14 cm -2 into a self-<strong>ion</strong> preamorphised<br />

Si sample. The TRIM calculated As pr<strong>of</strong>ile is shown for<br />

comparison.<br />

MEIS <strong>energy</strong> spectra in Figure 5.4. The TRIM calculated Si vacancy<br />

distribut<strong>ion</strong> <strong>and</strong> As implant pr<strong>of</strong>ile are shown for comparison. The dose<br />

dependent peak posit<strong>ion</strong> <strong>of</strong> the Sb implant is indicated by arrows.<br />

various anneal temperatures. (Bottom) The same pr<strong>of</strong>iles are plotted with<br />

a linear concentrat<strong>ion</strong> scale <strong>and</strong> smaller depth range. The MEIS pr<strong>of</strong>ile<br />

from the as-implanted sample is included in the figure for comparison.<br />
