Stoichiometric $SiC$ has a smaller atomic density than $c-Si$. A reduced density is also assumed for substoichiometric $a-SiC_x$. Hence the amorphous $SiC_x$ tends to expand and as a result compressive stress is applied on the $Si$ host lattice. As the process occurs near the target surface, stress is relaxing in vertical direction and there is mainly lateral stress remaining. Thus volumes between amorphous inclusions will more likely turn into an amorphous phase as the stress hampers the rearrangement of atoms on regular lattice sites. In contrast $a-Si$ volumes located in a crystalline neighbourhood will recrystallize in all probability. Carbon is assumed to diffuse from the crystalline to the amorphous volumes in order to reduce the supersaturation of carbon in the crystalline interstices. As a consequence the amorphous volumes accumulate carbon. \newpage \section{Simulation} -Before discussing the implementation some assumptions and approximations have to be made. Figure \ref{trim} shows the stopping powers and carbon concentration profile calculated by TRIM \cite{8}. The depth region we are interested in is between $0-300 \, nm$ (furtheron called simulation window), the region between the target surface and the beginning of the continuous amorphous $SiC_x$ layer at the implantation conditions of Figure \ref{xtem}. The nuclear stopping power and the implantation profile can be approximated by a linear function of depth within the simulation window. +Before discussing the implementation some assumptions and approximations have to be made.

In the same manner random coordinates are determined to select the cell where the carbon ion gets incorporated. In this step the probability distribution describing the stopping power profile is replaced by a distribution for the linearly approximated concentration profile. The local carbon concentration in the selected cell is increased. -Following carbon incorporation carbon diffusion is considered in order to allow a reduction of the supersaturation of carbon in the crystalline volumes. This is done by a simple diffusion algorithm in which the concentration difference for each two neighbouring cells is considered and partially balanced according to a given diffusion rate $d_r$ (simulation parameter). This time consuming diffusion process is repeated after each $d_v$ (simulation parameter) impinging ions. A switch is implemented to exclude diffusion in $z$-direction. As in experimental studies diffusional broadening of carbon concentration profiles has not been observed even at significantly higher implantation temperatures where no amorphous phase is formed \cite{9} diffusion among crystalline volumes is assumed to be zero in the following simulations. +Following carbon incorporation carbon diffusion is considered in order to allow a reduction of the supersaturation of carbon in the crystalline volumes.
