The depth profiles of B in heterojunctions of amorphous hydrogenated Si and SiC were measured by means of nuclear reaction analysis. It was found that the B concentration in the Si layer depended markedly upon the substrate temperature. It was concluded that the diffusivity (table 21) of B during hydrogenated amorphous Si film growth was very high.
