We present an experiment that gives insight into the origin of the dependence of the hole mobility (mu) on the dopant species in heavily doped p-type Si under low electrical field. The Hall carrier concentration and mobility were measured in Si coimplanted with B and Ga in the 0.1-2x10(20) cm(-3) concentration range. The strain induced by substitutional dopants, detected by high resolution x-ray diffraction, was varied by changing the relative B and Ga concentration. The effect of strain on mobility was disentangled and a linear relationship between 1/mu and the perpendicular strain was found.

Abstract
We present an experiment that gives insight into the origin of the dependence of the hole mobility (mu) on the dopant species in heavily doped p-type Si under low electrical field. The Hall carrier concentration and mobility were measured in Si coimplanted with B and Ga in the 0.1-2x10(20) cm(-3) concentration range. The strain induced by substitutional dopants, detected by high resolution x-ray diffraction, was varied by changing the relative B and Ga concentration. The effect of strain on mobility was disentangled and a linear relationship between 1/mu and the perpendicular strain was found.File in questo prodotto:
