Abstract

This article presents the results of experimental studies of local changes in the scattered light intensity and surface morphology in Mn implanted single-crystal silicon samples with electron conductivity and [100] crystalline orientation. The manganese ion energy, implantation dose, and phosphorus concentration in substrate were 40 keV, 5⋅1015÷1⋅1017 ion/cm2, and ~ 9,3⋅1014 cm–3, respectively. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Raman spectroscopy, using the backscattering geometry of surface-scattered light, were applied to analyze the surface morphology before and after implantation. AFM micrographs of the surface show characteristic nanometer-sized roughnesses, the shape and size of which strongly depend on the implantation dose. These nanoscale objects are not present on the non-implanted substrate surface. In the Raman spectra of the samples not subjected to implantation, the main Lorentz-type peak is always observed, which is characteristic of single-crystal silicon and centered at 520.0±1.0 cm−1, corresponding to the phonon wave vector. Several peaks are observed in the Raman spectra of manganese ion-implanted silicon samples (184, 291, 373, 468, 659, 798, and 804 cm−1), presumably associated with the formation of radiation defects and nanoscale objects on the surface of single-crystal silicon during ion implantation with the participation of silicon, manganese, phosphorus, and other impurity atoms. These structural defects in the silicon crystal lattice at the surface and near-surface caused by manganese ion bombardment lead to the excitation of new vibrational modes not observed in the initial silicon. These modes are manifested in Raman scattering spectra.
