In this paper, we have investigated experimentally the effects of initial oxygen concentration on oxygen pileup phenomenon and the diffusion of implanted impurities. 1.2 MeV $^{11}B^{+}$ and 2.2 MeV $^{31}P^{+}$ ions were implanted into p-type (100) Si wafers with a dose of 1${\times}10^{15}$ / $\textrm{cm}^2$. Secondary ion mass spectrometry(SIMS) measurements were carried out to obtain depth distribution profiles for implanted impurities and oxygen atoms after two-step annealing of $700^{\circ}C$(20 hours)+$1000^{\circ}C$(10 hours). Residual secondary defect distribution and annealing behabiour were also studied by cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy(TEM) observations. Oxygen pileup nearly $R_p$(projected range) were observed by SIMS measurements and considerable amount of residual secondary defect layer were observed by TEM observations. It can be seen that oxygen atoms are trapped at the secondary defects by the experimental results. Enhanced diffusions of boron and phosphorus to the bulk direction were observed with the increasing of initial oxygen concentration.

Intrinsic gettering is usually used to improve wafer quality which is an important factor for reliable ULSI devices. The two-step annealing method was adopted in order to investigate interactions between oxygens and secondary defects during oxygen precipitation process in lightly and heavily boron doped silicon wafers with high energy $^{11}B^+$ ion implantation. Secondary defects were inspected nearby the projected range by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. Oxygen pileup was measured in the vicinity of the projected range by secondary ion mass spectrometry for heavily boron doped silicon wafers.
