XANES analyses of silicon crystalline irradiated by nitrogen/oxygen ions.
X-ray absorption techniques have been applied to the characterization of 5 keV nitrogen / oxygen ions implanted silicon samples. The depth selective measurement of XANES by recording in PEY mode and the quantitative analysis by superposition of XANES spectra were carried out to elucidate the depth profile of implanted ions. It has been revealed that the silicon nitride phase were formed in silicon after prolonged N+ irradiation and it extended over the deep part of the damaged region from the surface. On the other hand, for the O+ irradiation, silicon dioxide phase were produced only in the shallow part of the damaged region, i.e., the silicon dioxide phase likely broke off during the irradiation.
