Recovery of range-zone luminescence by pulsed laser annealing in Cd+-implanted GaAs

  • 1. Sandia National Laboratory, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87185

Description

The effects of 300-K implantation of 200-keV Cd+ ions and subsequent pulsed laser annealing in GaAs were investigated by means of depth-resolved cathodoluminescence at 80 K. We found that lattice order could be restored sufficiently to increase the implanation-quenched luminescence by 2--3 orders of magnitude with either ruby or Nd:glass lasers. Thus the luminescence is recovered to within an order of magnitude of that in unimplanted material
