ABSTRACT:
A method for achieving extreme and arbitrary doping profiles in semiconductors with dopant concentrations varying over orders of magnitude in a few atomic layers. The method involves evaporating the semiconductor, along with the desired amounts of n- or p- dopants onto an atomically clean substrate semiconductor surface in an ultrahigh vacuum environment at low temperatures such that an amorphous film results. The amorphous film is then crystallized epitaxially by a solid phase epitaxy, thereby providing a single crystal with the desired dopant profile. Multiple profile changes or grading may be included in the semiconductor film by varying dopant concentrations in the amorphous layer as desired.
