Abstract
This work extends the study of dopant-enhanced epitaxial regrowth rate of amorphized Si from the <100> to the <110> and <111> orientations of Si. Boron and phosphorus dopants are considered. The annealing temperatures are 500 and 550 °C. Phosphorus enhances the growth rates in all three orientations by a constant factor of 8.1±0.9. Boron produces a higher enhancement factor of 12.2±1.2, except in the case of <100>. Implications of the results on various growth models are considered. The crystalline quality of regrown <111> layers is improved in the doped samples.
