Heavily p-type doped Ge layers were fabricated by 100 keV Ga implantation and subsequent flash lamp annealing for 3 ms in the temperature range between 700 and 900 °C. For comparison, some samples were annealed in a rapid thermal processor for 60 s. Ga fluences of 2×1015, 6×1015, and 2×1016 cm−2 were chosen in order to achieve Ga peak concentrations ranging from values slightly below the equilibrium solid solubility limit of 4.9×1020 cm−3 up to 3.5×1021 cm−3 which corresponds to a maximum Ga content of about 8 at. %. The structure of the doped layer and the Ga distribution were investigated by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry in combination with ion channeling, cross-sectional electron microscopy, and secondary ion mass spectrometry. Temperature dependent Hall effect measurements were carried out in order to determine the electrical properties of the Ga-doped Ge layers. It is shown that by flash lamp annealing Ga diffusion into the bulk can be completely avoided and the Ga loss by outdiffusion from ...
