Abstract:
A process for device fabrication comprising:implanting a boron dopant into a Czochralski (Cz) silicon substrate wherein the implant energy is in the range of about 500 keV to about 3 MeV and the implant dose is about 1.times.10.sup.13 atoms/cm.sup.2 to about 5.times.10.sup.14 atoms/cm.sup.2 ;annealing the implanted substrate at a first temperature followed by a second temperature to distribute the dopant in the substrate wherein the first temperature is about 725.degree. C. to about 800.degree. C. and the second temperature is at least about 900.degree. C. and wherein the duration of the anneal at the first temperature is less than about thirty minutes and wherein the duration and temperature of the anneal at the first temperature is selected so that a threading dislocation density in the substrate is less than about 10.sup.3 /cm.sup.2 at a depth in the substrate of at least about 0.5 .mu.m.
