Question
Arsenic is ion implanted into a uniformly doped, bare 𝑝-type Si substrate doped to NA =1016 cm-3. The implant energy is 𝐸 = 100 keV and the implant dose is 𝜙 = 8x1014 cm-2.

Solution
The given problem is related to the ion implantation process in semiconductor fabrication. We are given the implant energy (E), implant dose (ϕ), projected range (Rp), and projected straggle (ΔRp). We are also given the doping concentration (NA) of the p-type Si substrate. We are asked to find the peak As density, the surface As density, and the junction depth (xj).
(a) The peak As density (in cm-3) can be calculated using the given formula:
N(x) = ϕ / √(2πΔRp) * exp(− (x − Rp)² / 2ΔRp²)
For the peak density, x = Rp. Substituting the given values:
N(Rp) = (8x10^14 cm^-2) / √(2π * 0.02 µm) * exp(0) = 1.8x10^20 cm^-3
(b) The surface As density (in cm-3) is the same as the implant dose, which is given as ϕ = 8x10^14 cm^-2.
(c) The junction depth xj (in µm) is the depth at which the As density equals the substrate doping concentration NA. This can be found by solving the equation N(xj) = NA for xj. This is a more complex calculation that typically requires numerical methods. However, a rough estimate can be obtained by setting the argument of the exponential in the formula for N(x) equal to -1, which gives xj ≈ Rp + √2ΔRp = 0.06 µm + √2 * 0.02 µm = 0.09 µm.

This diffusion obeys the following equation:Yt = DYxx (1)where Y is the concentration of arsenic. The surface of the well is at x = 0 and the bottom at x = L =20m. At x = 0 the concentration is fixed at Y = 0 and at x = L the concentration is fixed at Y = 1.(a) [2]What is the steady state concentration of arsenic in the well?Solution: The steady-state condition is:Yt = 0Therefore the governing equation becomes:0 = DYxxIntegrating twice:0 = DY + c1x + c2Where c1 and c2 are constants of integration. Substituting the boundary conditions Y (0, t) = 0and Y (L, t) = 1:Y = xL(b) The arsenic is removed from the bottom after the concentration has reached a steady state.
