Popis: Slow positron implantation spectroscopy has been applied to the investigation of point defects formed during the synthesis of buried SiGe alloy layers in Si by high-dose implantation and post-amorphization with . It is seen that omitting the post-amorphization stage prior to annealing leaves a damaged layer, containing open volume defects, extending beyond the -implanted overlayer. Provided that the Ge dose is low enough to allow planar crystal regrowth, post-amorphization appears to inhibit defect formation. Samples implanted with higher doses contain as-yet unidentified defects.
