    Abstract

    The gettering of Pd to nanocavities in Si for implantation doses ranging from 5×1013 cm-2 to 1×1015 cm -2 was investigated by using Rutherford backscattering technique. It was observed that the competition between silicide formation and nanocavity gettering limited gettering efficiency. The results showed that, for a given annealing temperature, the gettering efficiency increased as the dose decreased.
