Ion Channeling Study of Damage in Neutron Transmutation Doped Semiconductors: Application to GaAs
SourceNeutron irradiation at a flux of 5 × 1011 neutrons /cm2 sec for 18 hr has been performed on n-type GaAs with 5.9 × 10−2Ω-cm (n= 2.1 × 1016/cm3). In annealing experiments for electrical properties, it is found that neutron irradiated-induced damages are removed by the annealing temperature at 800°C. The recovery of radiation damage is also confirmed from the improvement of photoluminescence for GaAs annealed at 800°C. The magnitude of the average displacement damage introduced during neutron irradiation is estimated to be 0.15 A by the measurement of Rutherford Backscattering channeling.
