Figure 1 shows the 1D plot of this. The default n and p-type activation models are used, commented out in the lines:
#material gaas p.type act.a="(2.2 - 0.00117 * T)" act.b="1.00e21" #material gaas n.type act.a="(2.2 - 0.00117 * T)" act.b="4.25e18"Plotted in Figure 1 are the silicon profile, the electron profile, and the net doping profile. The electron profile takes into account the less than 100 percent net n-type dopant activation under the silicon peak, as well as the reduced electron concentration in the bulk due to the beryllium background doping. The abs(doping) profile clearly shows the silicon/beryllium n/p junction.
Figure 2 shows the results when the n-type activation model parameters are changed. In this case, the following line is included:
material gaas n.type act.a="(2.2 - 0.00117 * T)" act.b="4.25e18"Note that the act.b parameter has been changed. This increases the net active n-type dopant concentration under the peak of the silicon implant profile.
