Abstract

Quantitative depth profiles of impurities in LPE layers of HgCdTe have been determined using relative sensitivity factors calculated from ion implantation profiles. Standards were provided for Li, Be, B, C, F, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Cu, Ga, As, Br, and In. Relative sensitivity factors as a function of ionization potential for O2+ primary ion SIMS and electron affinity for Cs+ primary ion SIMS have been calculated in order to extend quantitation to elements not yet implanted. Examples of depth profiles for implant standards and unimplanted layers are given.
