Electrical properties of a device depend primarily on the active dopant concentration; understanding of the activation (annealing) process is crucial for the prediction of device behaviour. The present paper reports results from a computer based simulation approach to improve the breakdown performance of the device by studying the annealing behaviour of boron implanted in silicon. In order to have deep insight of the effect of defect complexes on the device performance, extended defect model has been incorporated in the simulation program. Optimization of annealing time, annealing temperature and dose has been performed, for the first time, incorporating a complete set of process induced defects like {113} defects, interface traps, dislocation loops and the optimization has been validated in terms of the breakdown performance of the device.
