Abstract

A method for monitoring a dose of a silicon bearing implant is described. The method includes introducing a first implant species through a surface of a semiconductor substrate at a first does of energy level and introducing a silicon bearing species through the surface of the semiconductor substrate at a second dose and a second energy level. The method anneals the semiconductor substrate and measures a sheet resistance value of the surface of the semiconductor substrate. The method also determines the second dose value based upon the surface resistance value.
