Annotation | This paper presents the research the formation of zinc-containing nanoparticles (NPs) in Si (001) after double-step hot implantation of 64Zn+ and 16O+ ions. High-resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) methods were used to study a crystal structure of the samples. Depth profiles of implanted impurity atoms were measured by Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS). Zn NPs with a size of 3 up to 50 nm were found in the implanted samples. Zinc-containing NPs with the size of 5-10 nm were found in the surface layer of as-implanted Si substrates. The effect of the order of implantation on structural defects and the impurity atoms depth profiles is established. |
