The diffusion and activation of ion implanted boron and BF2 during rapid thermal annealing (RTA) was modeled by considering the reaction kinetics between point defects and boron. The diffusion model uses the Monte Carlo generated point defect profiles, an extended defect model and a surface amorphization model for high dose BF2 implantation. Excellent simulation results have been achieved by using a single set of diffusion and kinetic parameters to model the enhanced diffusion of boron during RTA for a wide range of B and BF2 implant doses.
