Effect of SiO2 encapsulation on the nitrogen reorganization in GaNAs/GaAs single quantum well

Effects of SiO2, encapsulation and rapid thermal annealing (RTA) on the optical properties of GaNAs/GaAs single quantum well (SQW) were studied by low temperature photoluminescence (PL). A blueshift of the PL peak energy for both the SiO2-capped region and the bare region was observed. The results were attributed to the nitrogen reorganization in the GaNAs/GaAs SQW. It was also shown that the nitrogen reorganization was obviously enhanced by SiO2 cap-layer. A simple model [1] was used to describe the SiO2-enhanced blueshift of the low temperature PL peak energy.

Influence of nitrogen implantation into the buried oxide on the radiation hardness of silicon-on-insulator wafers

摘要: In order to improve the total-dose radiation hardness of the buried oxide of separation by implanted oxygen silicon-on-insulator wafers, nitrogen ions were implanted into the buried oxide with a dose of 10(16)cm(-2), and subsequent annealing was performed at 1100 degrees C. The effect of annealing time on the radiation hardness of the nitrogen implanted wafers has been studied by the high frequency capacitance-voltage technique. The results suggest that the improvement of the radiation hardness of the wafers can be achieved through a shorter time annealing after nitrogen implantation. The nitrogen-implanted sample with the shortest annealing time 0.5 h shows the highest tolerance to total-dose radiation. In particular, for the 1.0 and 1.5 h annealing samples, both total dose responses were unusual. After 300-krad(Si) irradiation, both the shifts of capacitance-voltage curve reached a maximum, respectively, and then decreased with increasing total dose. In addition, the wafers were analysed by the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy technique, and some useful results have been obtained.
