Method of manufacturing semiconductor devices using light ion implantation and semiconductor device
A first doped region is formed in a single crystalline semiconductor substrate. Light ions are implanted through a process surface into the semiconductor substrate to generate crystal lattice vacancies between the first doped region and the process surface, wherein a main beam axis of an implant beam used for implanting the light ions deviates by at most 1.5 degree from a main crystal direction along which channeling of the light ions occurs. A second doped region with a conductivity type opposite to the first doped region is formed based on the crystal lattice vacancies and hydrogen atoms.
