Abstract

In this article we will illustrate how by suitable furnace design, the radial thermal gradients generated on a GaAs substrate during the post-implant annealing cycle can be virtually eliminated, and how such a technique can result in appreciable improvement in on-wafer activation uniformity (standard deviation better than ± 2%), with virtually constant activation efficiency in going from seed to tail end wafer of a given ingot.
