Controlling dopant profiles in hyperdoped silicon by modifying dopant evaporation rates during pulsed laser melting

We describe a method to control the sub-surface dopant profile in "hyperdoped" silicon fabricated by ion implantation and pulsed laser melting. Dipping silicon ion implanted with sulfur into hydrofluoric acid prior to nanosecond pulsed laser melting leads to a tenfold increase in the rate...
