Abstract:
The effect of isothermal annealing on the depth profiles of nitrogen atoms implanted into synthetic diamonds is studied by secondary-ion mass spectrometry. The annealing is performed under vacuum at 1400°C for 1, 5, or 20 h. It is found that the depth profile broadens on a macroscopic scale with annealing time. The broadening is successfully represented by a mathematical model of diffusion. The diffusion coefficient is roughly estimated at 2.3 × 1015, 8.5 × 1016, and 3.7 × 1016 cm2/s for annealing times of 1, 5, and 20 h, respectively.
