Description

Undoped GaN epilayers implanted at room temperature with 50-325 keV Fe+ ions in the fluence range of 1015 - 1017 ions/cm2 are studied by a combination of Rutherford backscattering/channeling spectrometry and time-of-flight elastic recoil detection analysis. Results show that for high ion fluences (>1x1016 cm-2) enhanced Fe concentration closer to the surface is observed. The Fe redistribution towards the surface increases as the ion fluence increases. Our findings are attributed to radiation enhanced diffusion during ion implantation and increasing of Fe diffusivity in the implantation-induced amorphous phase near the surface
