The diffusion of boron (B) in germanium (Ge) is studied. B was introduced in Ge wafers by ion implantation and concentration profiles after furnace annealing were obtained using secondary ion mass spectroscopy. The diffusion coefficient and solid solubility of B in Ge has been calculated to be 1.5(+/-0.3)x10-16 cm2/s and 5.5(+/-1.0)x1018/cm3, respectively at 850 degrees c by fitting experimentally obtained profiles. The value of diffusion coeffienc is at least two orders of magnitude lower than the minimum value reported in the literature for B diffusion in Ge. The results are significant as they question the general agreement about vacancy diffusion as the mechanism responsible for diffusion of B in Ge.
