Analysis of useful ion yield for the Mg dopant in GaN by quadrupole—SIMS

Abstract

The authors present a quantitative secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) analysis of the useful ion yield of magnesium dopant in a gallium nitride matrix. A quadrupole SIMS instrument was used to analyze an Mg-doped GaN sample grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition. Oxygen (O2+) was used as the primary ion beam and its energy was varied in the range from 0.5 to 5 kV with and without oxygen flooding near the sample. The results of the analysis can be used to determine the primary beam energies for optimal magnesium sensitivity.
