New annealing processes and explanation for novel silicon pn junctions formed by proton implantation

Proton-implanted n-type Si wafers were annealed at 950 degrees C to achieve novel pn junctions. The novel pn junctions are explained by the combined use of four models. The background (e.g. oxygen impurity) of an Si wafer is suggested to play a key role in creating the novel pn junction.
