Phase transformations in ion implanted Si studied by Rutherford backscattering and complementary techniques

Description

We have observed an amorphous to polycrystalline Si transformation with concurrent Sn redistribution in Sn-implanted Si at temperatures well below those at which solid phase epitaxial growth, or random crystallization, is observed to take place in undoped Si. The process is extremely rapid and characterised by a strong dependence on Sn concentration and temperature. We propose that this is mediated by molten Sn-rich precipitates in the amorphous Si
