Characterization and Fabrication of Microcrystalline Si Thin Films Prepared by FA-CVD

FA-CVD에 의한 미세결정질 실리콘 박막 제작 및 특성

We studied the electrical, optical and structural properties of microcrystalline silicon thin films prepared by a new chemical vapour deposition technique, called filament assisted(FA)-CVD. The microcrystalline silicon is sucessfully deposited when the hydrogen dilution ratio exceeds 30. The Raman peak at 520 cm-1 and the X-ray diffraction peak at 27.7\ulcorner0.2\ulcornerbecome sharper with increasing hydrogen dilution ratio. We obtain high quality microcrystalline Si by FA-CVD with optical gap of \ulcorner2.2eV and hydrogen content of \ulcorner3 at %.
