Abstract
A method for producing a p-doped semiconductor region in an n-conductive semiconductor body by means of diffusion using a combination of both aluminum and boron as dopants. The semiconductor body is positioned within a hollow silicon member which itself is located within a refractory tube. The refractory tube is evacuated to a very low pressure and then the interior of the tube is heated for a time and at a temperature sufficient to diffuse both aluminum and boron into the semiconductor body.
