The sheet carrier concentrations in GaAs samples, rapidly thermal annealed for times of 1-100 seconds, and pulsed laser or electron beam annealed, remain constant after subsequent heat treatments below 600°C arid 200°C respectively. The latter temperature limit of 200°C can be extended to 300°C if the GaAs sample is implanted hot (e.g. 150°C), an inctication that reduced implantation damage improves thermal stability of implanted dopants.
