A novel Differential Hall Effect technique is used to obtain doping profiles of 2keV implants of antimony in <100> silicon at a depth resolution of 2nm. The electrical profiles are compared with atomic profiles determined from Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy (SIMS) measurements. We demonstrate good consistency between the two profiling techniques and confirm that the SIMS profiles can be used to identify the junction depth. The profiles show that antimony does not diffuse significantly for annealing temperatures below 800°C.
