Popis: Specific samples containing 18 O and 16 O are used to measure the variations of the relative ion yields of boron, oxygen and silicon as a function of oxygen concentration. 18 O and 16 O are used to implement an Isotopic Comparative Method (ICM) which allows to correct the matrix effects involved by the presence of a high concentration of oxygen in the sample: the near-flat profile of 18 O, measured in the 'dilute', linear regime (weak concentration) is used to calculate the real concentration of 16 O. The ion yields of B + , O + , Si + , O - and Si - are measured as a function of the oxygen concentration. For B + ion yield, the variation is important whereas they are weak for Si ± and O ± ion yields for the range [0-12 at.%]. This ICM applied to oxygen in silicon can be considered as an interesting complementary method of previous 16 O implantation method' and of 18 O single marker method'.
