How the Ground Plane implantation is performed without damaging (and w/o varying the undoped nature) the top Si (8-10 nm) in FDSOI technology ?

It is a general practice to introduce Ground Plane in FDSOI devices under the BoX. The Ground Planes are introduced by Ion Implantation through Top Si layer and Buried Oxide. I wanted to know that...
