Annotation |
100 keV H+ and He+ ion implantation was performed in 300 µm thick (100) InP substrates at liquid nitrogen temperature with a constant fluence of 1 × 1017 cm–2. The surface morphology of the as-implanted InP samples was studied by optical microscopy. The implantation-induced damage was investigated by cross-sectional TEM, which revealed the formation of damage band in both cases near to the projected range of implanted ions. The formation of hydrogen-induced nanocracks and helium filled nanobubbles was observed in as-implanted InP samples. |
